North Side, Bodden Town

On the opposite point from West Bay and Seven Mile Beach is the East End of Grand Cayman. This is a beautiful and quiet stretch of the island, popular for its quiet beaches and destination-worthy restaurants. The East End is hardly undiscovered though as it is home to two major beach resorts: Wyndham Reef Resort and Morritt’s. Thanks to the two resorts, there are plenty of water sports opportunities in the East End, whether you’re interested in kayaking, paddleboarding, snorkeling, or boat trips. The landscape in the East End is quite unusual and varied—travel the length of the neighborhood and you’ll see blowholes shooting out geysers from the ironshore rocks, pretty and secluded beaches, shipwrecks, the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Garden, and a lighthouse. Homes here range from smaller seaside cottages and condos to extravagant oceanfront estates.

Living in the Cayman Islands

Imagine a tropical paradise that is also an international financial center, and you’ll understand why so many are drawn to the Cayman Islands. Live here and you’ll find that going to your happy place is as simple as stepping outside—this is a place where the national philosophy is called Caymankind. Three islands make up this British Overseas Territory: Grand Cayman, Little Cayman, and Cayman Brac. Grand Cayman, the largest of the three, is home to most of the development, tourism, and population, while Little Cayman and Cayman Brac are both loved for their secluded beaches, spectacular diving, and unplugged lifestyles. The transformation of the island as a tourism and economic destination began in the 1960s, when legislation that established English common law and tax neutrality was introduced. Infrastructure expansion, including multiple airports, further improved the Cayman Islands’ quickly growing prosperity. Today, the Cayman Islands are a modern Caribbean gem.
