When visitors first lay eyes on Grand Cayman Island, they don't even think about mountains: It is a flat piece of land that barely rises out of the water. To find a steep slope, visitors to Grand Cayman have to look straight down.
Just offshore, coral reefs and walls plunge dramatically into the abyss, creating superb conditions for visitors to Grand Cayman to go scuba diving and snorkeling. These underwater "mountainsides" (the peak being the island itself) ner fail to leave Grand Cayman divers and snorkelers awestruck.
Grand Cayman is a largely stress-free place to vacation. Crime is relatively rare. Islanders are friendly, speak English and enjoy the highest standard of living in the Caribbean. And Grand Cayman beaches are wide, sandy and fringed with palm trees. Duty-free shopping in George Town is aslo a big attraction.
