About
Cayman Brac
Cayman Brac a Nature Lover’s paradise is 12 miles long and 1 mile wide and has the most dramatic topography of the three Cayman Islands. Its majestic Bluff rises west to east along the island’s length to 152 feet above Spot Bay. Many mysterious caves are carved throughout this awe-inspiring natural attraction. The land and seascape offer visitors an ideal environment for outdoor activities such as hiking, rock climbing, birding, caving, cycling, fishing and scuba diving.
Home to some of the best dive sites in the world. The Bluff provides a natural barrier between the North Side and the open sea, making calm, clear waters ideal for diving and snorkelling. Dramatic drop-offs, swim-throughs and caves make it a mecca for divers of all levels.
Fishing is also excellent both from the shore and by boat. The deep-sea angler can test his skills against a blue marlin, tuna, wahoo, dolphin and barracuda. Reef fishing provides ample opportunity to catch grouper, snapper and other delicious fish.
Growing up in the Cayman Islands has been a very humbling experience as each of us treats each other as family,including our friends from overseas hence the reason we have a high return rate of stay-over tourism. We go the extra mile to ensure your stay with us is appreciated,

Attractions
The Bluff
The Bluff is a popular destination in Cayman Brac. The steep cliffs offer stunning views of the ocean and the nearby reefs. Visitors can also enjoy hiking, bird watching, and picnicking in the area. The Bluff stands 152 feet above sea level and is the highest point on the island. The views from the top are truly breathtaking.
MV Captain Keith Tibbetts
MV Captain Keith Tibbetts was a retired Cuban spy ship that was sunk as an artificial reef off the coast in 1996. The wreck is now a popular dive site and home to a variety of marine life. MV Captain Keith Tibbetts is a great example of how something that was once used for negative purposes can be transformed into something positive and beneficial for the environment.
Parrot Preserve
This stunning Island is home to one of the Cayman's most unique and beloved residents – the Cayman Brac parrot. This vibrant little bird is found nowhere else in the world, and is an key part of Cayman’s natural heritage.

The Cayman Brac Parrot Reserve is a key part of this effort, providing a safe haven for these birds to thrive. Visitors to the Parrot Reserve can learn about the work being done to save these special birds, and even get up close and personal with them on guided tours.
