The Bluffs and Caves of Cayman Brac

A thirty-minute flight from Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac is the second biggest of the three Cayman Islands and is known for its dramatic coastal scenery, deep caves, and breathtaking bluff-top hikes. The island is named for the 45-meter-high limestone bluff or "Brac" on its eastern tip, the highest point in the Caymans. Along the Brac, you can climb the steep walkway to a lighthouse with beautiful ocean views and look for nesting seabirds along the way.

Cayman Brac is also famous for its caves. Peter's Cave, Bat's Cave, Great Cave, Skull Cave, and Rebecca's Cave are among the easiest to access and the most popular. You can explore the caves on your own to see bat colonies as well as stalactites and stalagmites.

Other things to do on Cayman Brac include hiking the scenic trail through the National Trust Parrot Preserve and diving the island's wrecks and coral reefs; the MV Captain Keith Tibbetts, a sunken Russian frigate, is one of the top dive sites.
