Cayman Islands Dos and Don'ts
Do visit Hell when you go because it's a great place to send a postcard to all your friends and family! I mean how funny is it to tell them you went to Hell and Back. Do take a snorkeling or dive trip. It's one of the top destinations for this because the water is crystal clear! Do visit Stingray City. It's a great place to see the stingrays and snorkel. A lot of snorkeling trips include a stop off at the site so you wouldn't have to take an extra tour. Do go sport fishing! There are many tours offered there to catch these magnificent fish! The charter sometimes even offer to cook your catch after your trip. It's some of the best Mahi Mahi I've ever had. Don't go into Georgetown on the day Cruise ships are in port if you can avoid it. The streets become very cramped and is not as relaxing as it should be on these days. Don't forget the sunglasses and sunscreen. And an underwater camera would be useful for those water adventures you have in mind! Don't forget to look before you cross the street! I know that sounds like common sense but some drivers don't always believe in the saying, " pedestrians have the right of way." Trust me on this one. Last edited Apr 1, 10 7:10 PM.

Travel Tips for Dos and Donts in Cayman Islands
Hell, Cayman Islands
A small town in Cayman Island with lava formations probably contributing to its name. I tried to get the local post office to stamp my passport, but they wouldn't. It would have been nice to prove that I'd been to hell and back...

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands
Do not take a taxi in Grand Caymen. The local buses, which are actually medium sized vans, cost only $2.50 to ride as long as you want. The taxis will cost you up to $50! You will be on the bus with the locals, but we found many friendly people by riding the bus. The bus depot is to the right of the main library in the square one block north of the dock. You will see a sign proclaiming the $2.50 price.

Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands
On the northwest part of the island, you will find a very small town called Hell. It is a great tourist trap with great little souveniers. The limestone formations in the area have left a craggy, gnarled landscape of rock which the locals call Hell. The Devil's Hideout is run by a very funny older gentleman who dresses like the Devil. You will have many picture opportunites here. They have a post office, a few shops, and a bar. Don't forget to send postcards to everyone you know from Hell!
