Home to fruit bats, herons, wild green parrots and an abundance of tropical foliage, the 12-mile-long island of Cayman Brac boasts more than 170 caves and 1400 inhabitants. Named for the imposing limestone bluff, or Brac in Scottish Gaelic, that looms 140 feet above the sea, the middle Cayman offers spectacular diving at Wilderness Wall and Peter's Cave. Emerald green parrots flock at National Trust Parrot Reserve. To discover some of the island's secrets, take a taxi, hop on a bike or trot on foot.

Bat colonies and deep caves, used by island residents for shelter during storms, are the beckoning features of this limestone crag that rises 140 feet above the sea at Cayman Brac's eastern tip.
Walking/hiking here was excellent, along the rocky beach seeing so much with the water, the bluff and the rock formations.

The limestone caves are a remarkable sight, and the fruit bats that live in some of them are very cute!! Wear sneakers so you avoid injuring while climbing rocks and/or the ladders.

A scenic, point-to-point trail along the top of the bluff with scenic vistas and opportunities to observe nesting Brown Boobies.
I LOVE this hike! One of my favorite spots for a sunset hike. Lots of brown booby birds, century plants, palms trees, amazing views and more!

The Cayman Brac Museum, the oldest Museum in the Cayman Islands opened its doors to the public on December 3rd, 1983. Through the years our efforts have been focused on preserving the unique history of Cayman Brac & Little and creating informative exhibits. The Museum’s home is the Old Government Administration Building built in 1933 which housed the Post Office, Customs, Treasury and much more under one roof before it was replaced by a new building in 1983.
the personal stories kept here of the '32 hurricane will break your heart - and will renew your spirit.

One of Cayman Brac's top North Wall dive spots.
if you visit, remember : the '32 hurricane waves were crashing at the mouth of this cave ... and it's a hundred feet up on the broken limestone cliffs - down below, they all died ... here, a few survived

Parrot Preserve - A must see is the 180 acre preserve which was established to protect the endemic, endangered Cayman Brac Parrot. There is a two mile nature trail for hiking through the Preserve--a good place to see the beautiful local flora and fauna as well.
Don't let the initial board walk fool you. This is a great (and challenging) hike, rough terrain but not much uphill. We all loved it.

You HAVE to spend the time to find this place. Down a alleyway, you would not find it easy!.....take your time and do the climb up the rustic stairs! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED....The view alone is worth the effort lol.
