back to the islands Posted March 29, 2009 #1 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Not really into "swimming with the Stingrays". Any recommendations. We do like to do things on our own. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runner15km Posted March 29, 2009 #2 Share Posted March 29, 2009 If you want to beach snorkel, the best places on Grand Cayman is at Cemetary Reef, about 15 minutes drive from the pier and about 3-4 miles north ... a bit too far to walk. Cemetery Reef is a very popular spot for both snorkeling and sun tanning with trees for shade. This beautiful location will offer the best of both worlds, a beach entrance and good snorkeling nearby. You get dropped off pretty much in the middle of a neighborhood and you walk down a sand path beside a cemetery. The beach is on the backside of the cemetery and pretty much deserted. It has a small marine park right off the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
back to the islands Posted March 29, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Thanks, Runner! I was thinking that. Is there any good snorkeling off of 7 mile beach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapsmac Posted March 30, 2009 #4 Share Posted March 30, 2009 You might want to try Eden Rocks (For Snorkeling). Lots of fish! Short walk from the pier, free:D And there is a place to eat and drink if you want. Not much of a beach, but you can rent a chair. $7us (a few years ago). You can use the chairs for free, but you are not guaranteed one unless you pay. Good Luck, we will be there in April! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CO_photonut Posted April 1, 2009 #5 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Where is the best place to rent snorkel gear if we wanted to go to Cemetary Reef? And/or what would the best place be to snorkel if we wanted restrooms nearby (and hopefully lockers?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
