Cayman Brac - One of The Cayman Islands The Cayman Islands are located approximately 500 miles due south of Miami and 150 miles west of Jamaica. The country consists of three small islands - Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. Cayman Brac is approximately 90 miles from Grand Cayman and 7 miles from Little Cayman. Here residents enjoy freedom from taxation, a stable democratic government and one of the highest standards of living in the world. Cayman Brac - A Dramatic Bluff Cayman Brac, the middle-sized island, is 12 miles long and a mile wide and is home to around 1400 people. Dominating the island is a 140 foot bluff ("Brac" is Gaelic for bluff) which bisects the length of the island. Dotting the bluff are a number of caves that have played an important part in the history of the island. In earlier times, they provided shelter for the islanders from hurricanes. Today they provide a refuge for the local bats and a cool escape from a hot afternoon sun. The bluff has also resulted in the introduction of a new sport to the island - rock climbing. A Birder's Haven Bird life thrives on the island. The West End ponds provide a home for a variety of herons, egrets and the West Indian Whistling Duck. Brown Boobies and Magnificent Frigates can be seen soaring along the cliffs as they search out food for their young.
Cayman Brac - A Caribbean Paradise of Adventure Diving and snorkeling are the premier attractions on the island. Cayman Brac is world renowed for its reef life and excellent visibility. A pristine coral reef surrounds the entire island. Boat rides to the dive sites are short and the reefs can be easily accessed from shore. There are no stop lights, traffic snarls or light polution on the Brac. Walk out on a clear night and you can still see the Milky Way in all its finest or a startling full moon lighting up the ocean, visible from almost anywhere on the island. Getting to Cayman Brac is easy. Jet Service by Cayman Airways is offered on weekends. There is a direct flight from Miami on Saturdays. Cayman Airways Express offers twin otter service three times a day, every day of the week from Grand Cayman to Cayman Brac. For more details visit www.caymanairways.com.
