Cruise Passengers


When you arrive at the Island of Grand Cayman, you will be transported to shore by tender. This arrives in George Town, the Islands’ capital, at either North or South Terminal.

Within walking distance you will find duty free shopping and historic buildings as well as places to visit like the National Museum. You can also stroll to the Harbor; maybe take a submarine ride. To travel further afield, there is a public bus system, but given the time constraints you may be better traveling by taxi or hiring a car.

There is a wealth of choice on offer to you if you are visiting the Cayman Islands on a cruise. eCayOnline.com is here to provide you with all the information you could need. Use the eCay Business Directory to find a business to supply whatever you are looking for, from Scuba Equipment Hire to Automobile Rentals and Restaurants to Real Estate.

Grand Cayman

When people think of the Cayman Islands, they tend to think first of Grand Cayman. The biggest island of the three, it is home to 95% of the population of the Cayman Islands, and nearly all of the Islands’ infrastructure and amenities. Much of this is concentrated in the capital, George Town and most of the Island’s tourism provision in Seven Mile Beach.

This leaves the rest of the Island fairly unspoiled and the pace of life relaxed. Long white coral beaches, perfect clear blue waters, gorgeous temperatures, welcoming Islanders, rich culture and heritage and the quality of the tourism provision are notable features. No wonder Grand Cayman is such a top tourist destination for cruise visitors, package vacations and independent travelers.

Sister Islands

Although the majority of the population of the Cayman Islands lives in Grand Cayman, that doesn’t mean there’s nothing happening on the other two, or “sister” islands of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. They may be a little more remote than Grand Cayman, but the prize they offer travelers is definitely worth the extra travel… …find out more about the Sister Islands
