Things To Do in Cayman Islands

After you’ve fished with us at Jackson Watersports and reeled in some of Grand Cayman’s top species, it’s time to relax and explore more of what this amazing island has to offer—on land! From local cuisine to cultural landmarks and wildlife encounters, there’s no shortage of family-friendly adventures waiting for you.

Stroll Through Camana Bay

Located just minutes from Seven Mile Beach, Camana Bay is a vibrant town center filled with shopping, restaurants, art galleries, and kid-friendly hangouts. It’s perfect for a post-fishing stroll or a relaxed dinner after a day on the water. Check out Books & Books for a unique bookstore experience or grab a cone at Gelato & Co., a local favorite for handmade Italian gelato.

Visit the Cayman Turtle Centre

Just a short drive from the dock, the Cayman Turtle Centre in West Bay offers an up-close look at native wildlife. The center is home to green sea turtles of all ages, and kids will love the butterfly garden, predator tank, and nature trail. It’s both educational and fun—and a great way to unwind after fishing.

Experience Local Flavor at Heritage Kitchen

When it comes to food with an authentic Caymanian twist, Heritage Kitchen is a must-visit. Located along the beach in West Bay, this small but popular eatery serves local favorites like jerk chicken, conch fritters, and fresh catch (yes, even if you’ve already had your fill of fish!). It’s casual, flavorful, and full of charm.

Tour the Crystal Caves

For an underground adventure, take the family to the Cayman Crystal Caves in Northside. This guided walking tour takes you through ancient limestone caves filled with stalactites, stalagmites, and crystal-clear pools. It’s a cool break from the sun and a fun way to learn about Cayman’s natural history.

Get Cultural at Pedro St. James Castle

Known as the “Birthplace of Democracy in the Cayman Islands,” Pedro St. James Castle is the oldest building on the island and a national historic site. The 3D movie and interactive exhibits are perfect for visitors of all ages. The grounds also offer beautiful views and shaded picnic spots for relaxing with your crew.

Explore Local Art at the National Gallery

Art lovers will appreciate the National Gallery of the Cayman Islands, which features work from local artists and rotating exhibitions. The peaceful outdoor sculpture garden and family-friendly workshops make this a fun stop, especially if you're looking for a quiet break from your active itinerary.
