Searched and didn't really see a thread on Cayman.

We're staying on 7 Mile Beach the end of February. What are some restaurant and bar recommendations?

We'll be doing some diving and golf while on our trip already, but recommendations for other fun/cool activities on the island are welcome as well.

TIA

take the route 9 bus to spotts beach and swim with the sea turtles. kind of a low key beach with picnic tables and a porta potty. the buses run fairly regularly for $3/cayman.

"driver(# people) stop please" at the grocery along the way for beers and some snacks. the current is kind of strong, so i would recommend flippers.

me and this turtle and a very relaxing morning floating in the current and eating sea grass together:

where the cruise ships dock, there is a public swimming hole next to Paradise restaurant (place has a bright green roof). free to jump in, but it doesnt really have a beach, just a concrete slab with a ladder into the water.

it had the best array of fish species around the island imo. some big tarpon and other colorful smaller varieties. but the water can taste a little like boat fuel.

Look up Rackams waterfront bar & grill. Here is the link to website Rackams. We really liked it.

I've done the sting ray city jet ski tour with grandcaymanexcursions dot com twice and loved it. They pick you up in front of a gift shop near the terminal, shuttle you to the holiday inn and you ride jet skis out to sting ray city. You have your own group (maybe a max of 10 people instead of the big groups with 20-30 people) and the tour guide will let you hold the rays and feed them etc. Then you have the option of going to rum point beach or snorkeling. Have had a great time with them!

Also get you some rum cake... Freakin' delicious

Had a few good times at Fidel Murphy's Irish Pub.

It's in little strip mall on West Bay Road about a half a mile north of George Town.

We passed on Grand Cayman this year for Curacao but we did our research anyway. Sting Ray City, the Cayman Turtle Center and the Queen Elizabeth eth Botanical Garden all made the list of stuff to not miss. There are also the ruins of Fort George and the flip flop tree off the beaten path to check out. Lots of good opportunities to snorkel, including Starfish Point, Spotts Beach, Cheeseburger Reef and Connolly's Cove. They also have a bioluminescent bay that looks easy to access.
