iluv2go Posted September 30, 2010 #1 Share Posted September 30, 2010 GC is expensive so we were looking for a fun bar to hang out at while in port. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fourseventeen Posted September 30, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 30, 2010 How is Grand Cayman expensive? US dollar is worth 1.25 in GC last I checked. BUT nothing in ANY port will be cheap compared to somewhere off the beaten path Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurtleTagger Posted September 30, 2010 #3 Share Posted September 30, 2010 The cash exchange rate for the Cayman Islands is fixed at $1 CI= $1.25 USD or conversely, $1 US = $.80 CI. So the CI $ is "worth" more than a US $. Most prices will be stated in CI$, so you'll need to add 25% to convert to USD. Your final bills will be converted to USD for you.

drew sailbum Posted September 30, 2010 #4 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Also note, The Cayman Islands imposes a rather high import duty on alcohol. Prices of mixed drinks, wine, or beer thus tend to be rather high. You should expect beer bottles to run US$4 to $5 each. Mixed drinks can be some serious cash!

KarenandBruceG Posted October 4, 2010 #8 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Check out Breezes, across the street from the tender area, nice people watching place from upstairs bar. We visited Breezes and in our way of putting things it had serious "hang-out" potential! If you go there be sure to order something off the beaten path from the menu. I forget what Karen ordered but I had the goat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
