Head to the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park to embark on a mile-long Blue Iguana Safari Tour. You’ll likely see these big, bright lizards darting around the park!
8. Visit the Rum Cake Factory
When we think of Caribbean desserts, our minds automatically wander to rum cakes. These delicious cakes have been part of our cuisine for centuries, but they were made even more accessible to everyone by Tortuga Rum Company, Ltd. When you visit the Tortuga Rum Cake Shop, there is a large observation window you can look through to see how the cakes are made. There is currently no formal tour, but you can get free samples at the shop!

The beautiful, blue water that surrounds the Cayman Islands is so inviting that you can’t help but plan parts of your vacation around it. Renting a jet ski is one of the best excursions in Grand Cayman you can enjoy out on the water! Many of the rental agencies here offer excellent tours and will teach you safety tips and how to ride before you embark on your excursion. Then, you can zip around the clear water.
10. Go Fishing
For some, there’s nothing more relaxing than casting your fishing pole out in the open ocean. There are plenty of great companies that offer fishing excursions!
