What’s worth seeing in George Town?

Located on the Grand Cayman George Town is the capital of Cayman Islands, which is British overseas territory. The city, though it is relatively tiny, is the financial center known in the whole world as the location of more than 300 branches of offshore banks. The biggest attractions of the island are beautiful beaches, azure sea, and lovely coral reefs, that encourages diving.

Cayman Islands were discovered in 1503 when Cristopher Columbus arrived. They were called Tortugas due to the huge population of turtles in that region. The modern name refers to Spanish word caimán, which means crocodile. No wonder – it is nature that is the main touristic attraction of those completely flat islands, whose highest peak has not more 40 m above the sea level. Thanks to vast coral reefs, islands used to be once a shelter for pirates. To this day on the Cayman Islands live their descendants and exist many legends connected to the location of hidden treasure robbed by pirates.  

George Town is a base for almost 80 thousand divers, who come there each year from all over the world, to admire the unusual amount of sea animals (for e.g. rays, reef sharks, barracudas, langoustines or turtles), as well as the unpolluted beauty of reefs. The most often visited places are: the national park Bloody Bay Wall Marine Park, where you can dive even a few hundred metres deep, and Stingray City with endless number of rays. In the city itself you can visit the National Museum of Cayman Islands and a replica of the ship “Nina”, on which Columbus arrived at the shore. Must see is the beach of white sand 7 Miles Beach, considered as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world and Boatswain's Beach (ex-Cayman Turtle Farm), a huge sea park.
