It is a unique and beautiful island that appeals to naturalists, fisherman, divers, snorkels, and those who appreciate the simple life. It's quiet 11-mile stretch of land is a nature lovers paradise. It is dotted with pristine lagoons, mangrove forests, orchid strewn swamps, and salt ponds. With a population of less than 100, honeymooners will find total relaxation and privacy along the island's quiet, romantic shores. Little Cayman is so flat that bicycling is effortless, so hop on a bike and visit any of the dozen or so white sand beaches, or stop and swim out to beautiful Owen Island.

    Divers of all levels come to explore Little Cayman's spectacular underwater world, and snorkeling is just as riveting as the reefs are so close to the surface. The underwater visibility around Little Cayman is 100-150 feet all year. There are over 50 unique dive sites off Little Cayman, including the famous Bloody Bay Wall, which starts at just 18 feet below the surface and plunges vertically down to 1,200 ft. Explore the unmatched beauty of Little Cayman's magnificent coral gardens, black coral trees, vibrantly colored tropical fish and swaying seaplumes. It is one of the best dive sites in the world! Shore diving and snorkeling from Jackson's Point is also spectacular, with coral heads rising from a 40 foot sandy bottom to within 10 feet of the surface.

    Fishermen can enjoy deep sea fishing, reef fishing and bonefishing around Little Cayman. Experience unbelievable thrills catching a grouper, snapper, wahoo, marlin, sharks or barracuda.
