Going Around the Cayman Islands

First, if you are a citizen of the U.S., Canada, the UK and most of the Commonwealth nations, you will not need a visa in getting to the Cayman Islands. (Of course, you are still required to carry with you your valid passport and a return or forward ticket.)

And when you are already on the islands, there are many ways to get around — be it on air, water or land. At the Grand Cayman alone (it is the largest of the islands), you can have any one of your activities to last from day till night.

Air

The beauty of the place can surely be appreciated not only when you are on foot but on other means. In fact, there is a whole new vista of the land as seen from the air. You can see the exquisite natural landscapes while you are up there above on a helicopter.

For the more adventurous who is into action, there are Parasailing Professionals who can gently introduce you into the wonders of the sky and the sea breeze.

If you are already an expert in parasailing, you go right ahead and do your thing. You can choose a single, double or triple parasail. (For direct bookings, there are discounts available.) 
 
Land

There are so many ways to do and see once you are out into the Cayman sun. You can choose from the many activities and the many places to visit — from a relaxation place (for those who want calm and rest) to exciting sports and games (for those in search of action). 

One ideal spot is the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park. It is located at the center of the Grand Cayman. After paying your entrance fee, you can stay the whole day inside, enjoying the flora and the fauna while taking your time contemplating your personal thoughts. All these while enjoying the scene and bathing in the warm sunlight.

Other places like the Skate Park (the largest of its kind) are for both parents and children to enjoy. They can also do their bonding at the Pampered Ponies, a horse-riding place for horse-riding experience for the kids.

The Honey Suckle Trail Rides offer a slight difference in horse-ride thrills because they have different rides to suit their customers like guided trail rides, sunset rides, midnight rides, and even picnics.   

Water

Because the islands are surrounded by water, everyone should have the right to enjoy the water all around. At the Grand Cayman, kayaking is one of the newest activities offered to do your sight-seeing.

Kayaking companies offer tours by day and night. Watch the glory of nature during daytime or you may find a good place to watch the sunset. 

At night, watch the ethereal glow of the water brought on by bioluminescent sea animals. Aside from being eco-friendly, kayaking also has the advantage of going to places not reached by conventional roads. 

Other water activities loved by their own enthusiasts include scuba diving and snorkeling, water sports, deep sea fishing, and circling about the place by boats. 

For all the fun and excitement awaiting you at every turn in these islands, a full day and night is definitely not enough. Some stay for weeks and would still say they still have not done everything there is to do at Cayman Islands.
