Little Cayman

Here is something about the Cayman Islands that will be a nice change up from Grand Cayman. It is Little Cayman. Little Cayman is one of the three Cayman islands. It is the least developed and the smallest of the three. It is known for a great honeymoon location and is a top Caribbean destination.

The population of this island is about less than 170. Just imagine, that is about the population of a block in Chicago! (Hard to believe!) Little Cayman is only ten miles long and one mile wide. It is a great honeymoon place because their is a lot of privacy and complete relaxation. The beaches are gorgeous with blue water and white sand. What gets better than that?!

Little Cayman is great for scuba diving. There is tons of different sites to dive. Bloody Bay Wall Marine Park is one of the most popular dive sites for divers around the world. It is known for the drop-offs and swim throughs in the ocean. If you are not into diving, there is also a lot of snorkeling in Little Cayman before the walls drop off with a variety of coral and sponges. You might see lobster, octopus, rays, reef sharks, turtles, and plenty of tropical fish! Another interesting fact about Little Cayman is you might get the chance to see unique birds. Little Cayman is a home to the largest colony of Red-Footed Boobies. (I did not know what there were at first, but look how CUTE they are in the picture below!)
