The Cayman Islands are an island group in the Caribbean Sea, ninety miles south of Cuba.

The small but affluent port city of George Town is the capital of the Cayman Islands. Located on the island of Grand Cayman, George Town has all of the shopping, which includes the highly sought after rum cake, all sorts of jewellery, and the endless duty-free shopping on offer just outside the docks. The main restaurants and bars are located in George Town and various island tours often meet here. The buildings are painted in attractive pastel colours and the city is very well kept and pleasant.
The Grand Cayman is known for its Seven Miles Beach, a gorgeous beach with powdery white sand and aqua marine sea. Seven Mile beach, located on the west coast north of George Town, is one of the finest beaches in the world. If you love sunshine and the ocean this may be the place for you.

Another site is located near the village of El Cedral, inland from the "Carretera Costera Sur" highway.

Day 6
bimini, bahamas
Arrival: 08:00
-
Departure: 17:00
Bimini is the westernmost district of the Bahamas and comprises a chain of islands located about 80 kilometres (50 mi) due east of Miami. Bimini is the closest point in the Bahamas to the mainland United States and approximately 210 km (130 mi) west-northwest of Nassau. The population is 1,988 as of the 2010 census.
Bimini has three islands, North Bimini, South Bimini, and East Bimini. The largest islands are North Bimini and South Bimini.
Its main settlement is Alice Town, a collection of shops, restaurants, and bars on a road known as "The King's Highway". The second major road is called Queens Highway and runs almost the length of the island parallel to Kings Highway.
South Bimini houses an airstrip, South Bimini Airport, and offers a quiet alternative to the slow bustle of North Bimini. There is a small community of homes on South Bimini known as Port Royale. For many years, South Bimini tourists were limited to boaters because there were few accommodations other than private homes.
Because Bimini is close to Miami, Florida, many American anglers go to the islands by boat to fish or to enjoy the local nightlife. Scuba diving and snorkeling are also popular activities, as there are many shipwrecks in the area, such as the wreck of the SS Sapona, which ran aground in 1926 during a hurricane. The top of the ship is exposed to the air while the bottom half is submerged. Parts of the wreck were stripped over the years and some of the wood was used in the construction of the Compleat Angler Hotel and bar on North Bimini.

The Bahama Islands are an archipelago consisting of about 2,000 islands if you include the cays, which are small islands that are formed on coral reefs. Nassau, on New Providence, is the capital of the Bahamas and features a mixture of colourful Neo-colonial 19th century buildings and modern hotel resorts. Nassau is situated on the northern end of New Providence, dominating the bay between the main island and Paradise Island. The vast majority of the country's population lives in Nassau on New Providence Island and in the Freeport area on Grand Bahama.
Nassau features a mixture of colourful Neo-colonial 19th century buildings and modern hotel resorts. The colonial beauty of the Historical Town of Nassau is worth a visit. The pink Parliament Building, which has a statue of an enthroned Queen Victoria out front, is the most beautiful sight in Nassau. The Pirate Museum is also a major attraction in Nassau. The interactive museum tells of the history of pirates. The City of Nassau is landscaped in a beautiful tropical setting. Local foliage is purely enchanting and the array of tropical plants they have maintained here definitely add to the charm of the country.
