The Cayman Islands is well-known for its beautiful beaches, stunning clear blue water, and its safe and family-friendly society. Along with the consistently fine weather, it attracts visitors and residents to Cayman from around the globe.

While Cayman is known worldwide for Scuba diving, it has a lot more than just this to offer in the way of outdoor activities.

For the non-divers and families who have younger children, there are many in-water activities to entertain everyone.

Of course, no visit to Cayman would be complete without a visit to the famous Stingray Sandbar. Here you can stand in waist-deep crystal clear water to play with the 100 or so Southern Stingrays that call it home. Several tour operators can take you out to the Sand Bar, and on weekends, you will find many residents out in their own boats playing with the friendly stingrays.

Snorkelling in Cayman is a fantastic way to see amazing aquatic life; some people claim it is a quieter and less intrusive way to see marine life than scuba diving. Either take a commercial boat or explore the waters around Cayman on your own. You will always find a friendly local to steer you in the right direction.
