This trio of islands enjoys the highest standard of living in the Caribbean and, as a result, visitors can expect extremely high standards of hospitality in every way – it's clean, everything works (pretty well on time!) and the atmosphere is warmly welcoming. We continue to be impressed by the strict policing of Cayman's precious marine environment – the healthy reefs are living proof that marine protection laws can and do work. On Grand Cayman, there's more to do than many people realise and the two sister islands offer a contrasting escape for a day trip or longer.
Christina still rates this as one of the best diving destinations, for all standards, and adds: "I especially recommend Grand Cayman for a family holiday not least as there is so much of interest for children from the turtles at the Turtle Farm to Stingray City. There's a good range of suitable accommodation and dining out is a pleasure for all the family."
You can send a postcard from Hell – a unique spiky rock formation surrounded by mangroves (and it even has its own post office!). The famous Seven Mile Beach is actually only five and a half miles long. The Cayman Islands is the only place in the world that you can dive on the Deep Explorer submarine to 1,000 ft, a truly once in a lifetime experience.
