THE CAYMAN ISLANDS ~ the history of the Cayman Islands
History
Cayman Islands
The
of the
“HEHATHFOUNDEDITUPONTHESEAS.”
How the Cayman Islands
Got Its Name
The Cayman Islands was first sighted by
EuropeanexplorersonMay10,1503,owing
to a chance wind that blew Christopher
Columbus’shipoffcourse.Onhisfourthand
finalvoyagetotheNewWorld,Columbuswas
en route to the island of Hispaniola (home
to Haiti and the Dominican Republic) when
his ship was thrust westward toward “two
verysmallandlowislands,fulloftortoises
(turtles),insomuchthattheylookedlikelittle
rocks, for which reason these islands were
calledLasTortugas”.
ThetwoislandssightedwereCaymanBrac
andLittleCayman.A1523mapshowingall

meaning alligators or large lizards, but by
1530thenameCaimanaswasbeingused.
ItisderivedfromtheCaribIndianwordfor
themarinecrocodile,whichisnowknownto

thewordeventuallydevelopedintoCayman
and adding the word islands, we became
the‘CaymanIslands’.
Who were the First
Inhabitants?
ThefirstrecordedEnglishvisitorwhovisited
ourshoreswasSirFrancisDrakein1589.
The first known settlers arrived in Little
Cayman around 1658, and it is generally
believed that they were deserters from

whogaveuptheirerrantwaystoliveamore
peacefullifeontheislands.IssacBodden,
the first recorded permanent inhabitant of
the Cayman Islands, was born on Grand
Cayman around 1700. A variety of people
settled on the islands: pirates, refugees
from the Spanish Inquisition, shipwrecked
sailorsandslaves.
Thefirstrecordedsettlementswerelocated

1661 – 1671. Other settlers moved to

protection from attack by the Spanish
ships,sincethesettlerscouldhideinthe
woodlands when necessary. Likewise, on
Grand Cayman there was more land to
cultivate. As a result, the settlements of
East End and Bodden Town were founded
around the same time. The earliest
population record of the Cayman Islands
goes back to the year 1774 when it was
estimatedthatatotalof176personslived
ontheislands.

excerptsfromThe Cayman Islands Dictionary.Butfirst,youshouldlearn
a‘lil’bit’aboutthelocaldialectandhowitisdifferentfromyourown.
Our dialect
The Caymanian dialect is a form of nonstandard English that contains traces
of Scottish, Cornish, Welsh and North
American accents blended with a unique
form of broken English. The latter is
attributed to an 18th century influx of exslavesfromvariouspartsoftheCaribbean
including hispanic immigrants from Cuba
andHonduras.
Since the 18th century, the Caymanian
dialect has evolved harmoniously
throughoutthethreeislandsdespitealack
of infrastructure which separated the key
districts.Thoseperiodsofseparationhave
alsomadeaprofoundimpactonthedialect
itself as many Caymanians are now able
to distinguish the origins of one another
based on accent. This tends to vary by
district and even by island which continues
the evolution of the linguistic heritage of
theCaymanianpeople.

“ We were married at sunset with the most perfect setting we
could imagine, the only thing that made the day more
extraordinary was the sweet sounds of Bona Fide. Isadora
performed a beautiful original song. It was wonderful and just
right for our special day! After dinner we enjoyed a great variety
of music with plenty of Caribbean flair - the band had all of our
small group dancing - Bona Fide was perfect. We would highly
recommend Isadora and her band to make your wedding day
even more memorable! ”

Culturally

Cayman
FOR THOSE WELL TRAVELLED, THE CAYMAN ISLANDS IS A
DESTINATION LONG KNOWN FOR CULINARY ExCELLENCE AND
DIVINE DINING ExPERIENCES. This tiny trio of islands has over
200restaurants,offeringbothlocalsandtravellersgreatdiversity,
qualityandselectionwhenitcomestothediningscene.
On Grand Cayman, as each sun drenched
day comes to a close, the scene clearly
transitions from the waves lapping gently
on Seven Mile Beach to thoughts of the
deliciousdiningthatcanbefoundinevery
districtacrosstheIsland,fromWestBay,to
SevenMileBeachtoBoddenTown,toname
justafew.WhiletheIslandisperhapsmost
well-knownforitsinternationallyacclaimed
annual epicurean event in January, the
celebration and enjoyment of food is a
deepseatedtraditionoflocals.
Having earned the reputation as Culinary
Capital of the Caribbean, the Islands
undoubtedly boast a culinary pedigree to
be proud of. Infused with the true taste
of the Caribbean, nothing comes close to
traditional treats such as fried fish and
fritters and jerk chicken or pork, served
up from a variety of laid back and unique
streetsidelocations.
AsonewouldexpectfromanIsland,fresh
fishandseafoodaboundandcanbefound

the selection typically includes snapper,

Tradition has it that Sunday wouldn’t be
Sunday without fish ‘n’ fritters, leisurely
enjoyedunderathatchedroofedbeachside

TreeCaféinBoddenTown.
Caribbeanhistoryisintricatelylinkedtothe
slavetrade,andmanyofthefoodscommonly
prepared were initially transplanted to the
Islands for the African slaves. Over time
as slavery was abolished, servants and
workers from India, China, Europe and
Jamaicaarrivedonourshores,bringingwith

is ‘Jerk.’ Typically prepared over charcoal

Finally, grilling has been an island tradition
forgenerationsandeventoday,Caymanians
can be found preparing local specialties in
everything from a traditional caboose (the
traditional sand-bottomed grill) to charcoal

Rum is the heartbeat of the Caribbean

in one way or another from the days of
buccaneers and pirates to plantations and
distilleries.Aseveryseriousrumloverand
connoisseur will know, the length of time
over which a rum has been aged, and the
method used for aging, contributes to the
widevarietyofstylesandflavours.
Here in the Cayman Islands, while there

so why not use it for rum production too?

andtheCaymanIslandsisnodifferent.
Caybrew, the immensely popular and 100%
locallyproducedbeeroftheCaymanIslands
hitthelocalmarketin2007.Initsfirstyearof
operation, the smooth, full bodied premium
lager was already earning international
recognition,winningthecovetedgoldmedal
attheprestigiousMondeSelectionAwards.
With the guidance of Brewtech GmbH, a
Germanconsultancyfirmthatspecialisesin
thedesign,constructionandmondernization
of breweries, the Cayman Islands Brewery,
underwent a complete overhaul at their
former plant. With new renovations and
innovations at the modernised 12,000 sq

From its inception, the Cayman Islands
Brewery has included green initiatives as
an integral part of its daily routine with
the ultimate goal being to minimise its
environmental impact. This commitment
has made the company a leader in green

For example, all of the wastewater produced

Below the tranquil, calm waters of the Cayman Islands, innumerable surprises await – so many that you could dive a different
site 365 days of the year and never see the same thing twice. Whether it’s a steep, deep wall adorned with spectacular corals,
wrecks that are home to a wide array of marine life, shallow reefs filled with schooling fish, or simply a friendly place to be
“wowed” below the surface and “wooed” above it, you’ll always find new excitement in the Cayman Islands.

CAYMAN BRAC ~ heritage sites & nature trails
1. West End Point Outlook – Watch birds, the sea
and the sunset looking towards Little Cayman.
2. Westerly Ponds (west and east ) – On the
southwest shore, use board walks and viewing
areas to observe over 100 species of birds on the
wetlands.
3. Salt Water Pond – A sanctuary at the junction of
South Side Road and Gerrard Smith Road; seasonal
birdwatching, least tern colony, April-August.
4. To Rebecca’s Cave/Salt Water Pond Walk
– Follow sign on Rebecca’s Road at junction with
South Side Road.
5. Rebecca’s Cave Historic Site – This cave was
once used as a hurricane shelter.
Heritage Sites &
Nature Trails
Savour the glory of spectacular cliff
walks on the 140-foot bluff thrusting
vertically from the ocean floor. Have a close
encounter with magnificent Frigatebirds
and Brown Boobies and marvel at how
these winged creatures are held aloft by air
currents rising from the sheer bluff face.
Explore the caves in which generations of
Brackers have taken refuge during storms.
Our wetland ponds harbour a wide
selection of Herons and shore birds,
including the rare West Indian WhistlingDuck. Many pause to rest and feed on their
long migratory journey between North and
South America. Some of these travellers,
such as the Migrant Warblers, spend the
winter in our woodlands.
Our heritage sites are marked on the
map. The painted panels tell the story of
early settlement, and the ecology of our
wetlands and protected birds – the Booby
and the Cayman Brac Parrot.
Ceramic interpretive signs and ecology
panels give information on beach walks,
historic sites and hikes on the woodland
trails. Here trees and plants are clearly
identified: the Tropical Cedar (the parrot’s
favourite for a cavity nest), the endemic
Silver
Thatch
Palm,
Pepper
Cinnamon, orchids and cacti.
Brac Parrot, with a population of only
350. Look for parrots on the north coast
and in their protected woodland reserve
on the bluff, and keep an eye out for the
indigenous Vitelline Warbler and RedLegged Thrush.
Our white heritage signs mark the
locations of all the sites of cultural
interest.
6. Salt Water Pond Walk – A hike from the
south to the north coast, beside Rebecca’s Cave;
birdwatching and tropical plants. A strenuous hike.
Level: moderate to rough.
7. Salt Water Pond Walk – No. 6 in reverse, from
the north coast at White Bay to the south coast.
8. The Marshes Wetlands – on South Side Road
West, near Public Beach; birdwatching and the Red
Shrimp Hole.
9. Bat Cave – In the bluff on South Side Road
West.
10. Beach Walk to First Cay – A robust walk from
the end of the road along the southeast shore below
the bluff to the large rock (First Cay); only serious
climbers should proceed further as rough seas are
a hazard. Brown Booby, Frigate birds and Migrant
Tropic birds from January to August. Return trip 2
hours. Level: easy to moderate.
For your own safety, always wear hiking
boots on the trails, always carry water,
consider taking a walking stick and go with
a companion if possible. If you hike alone,
inform your hotel of your intended routes.
The limestone cracks easily, so be aware
on the hiking paths — and never go too
close to the edge of the Bluff. Please use
the litter bins provided, leave the flora and
fauna untouched, park off the main roads
and respect ’Private’ signs. Help us keep
our island pristine, so that it will be
just as beautiful when
you return!

ISLANDS
BRAC
Things
to do
The Bluff
The Bluff commences at the West End of
the island and extends through-out the rest of the island
down to Spot Bay. It is the highest point on this island
as well as through-out the Cayman trio. On the Bluff
there are literally hundreds of caves of all sizes. In the
caves are bats and other living creatures.
Cayman Brac Museum The Cayman Brac Museum
offers residents and visitors alike a glimpse of the past.
The old historic building is one of the oldest structures
on Cayman Brac. It once housed many Government
departments and is still referred to as ‘The Old
Government Administration Building’. It contains a vast
collection of artifacts and relics of the past.
Wall of Honour, a relief of Christopher Columbus and
several boardwalks and gazebos constructed to fit in
with the natural surroundings. The Wall of Honour, has
the names of 500 persons who have made a significant
contribution to Cayman Brac and Little Cayman over its
500 year history.
Cayman Brac Heritage House The acre of
beautifully landscaped grounds dotted with thatched
gazebos and fountains includes an old-fashioned well
and tannery, as well as Cola Cave (used to shelter
the former estate owners during hurricanes), with
informational panels. The main building, though new,
replicates a traditional house; the interior has a few
displays and videos depicting Brac history, but the treat
is watching local artists at work. It’s a great resource
for books on natural history and Caymanian crafts;
daily slide shows, various cultural events, and talks
by visiting naturalists are often scheduled. Call ahead
before visiting to make sure that the house is open.
Open weekdays 9:30am - 1pm and 2pm - 5pm, Saturday
10am - 3pm. T: 345-948-0563

Christopher Columbus Gardens
Cayman Brac Lighthouse From the Parrot
Reserve, continue travelling on Major Donald Drive east
to the Lighthouse, located at the end of the road There
are actually two lighthouses at this point; an historic
famous MV. Captain Ketih Tibbetts, a huge 330 foot long
Russian Brigadier Type II Class frigate that was scuttled
in the north shore of Cayman Brac in September 1996.
The Keith Tibbetts is a great dive and one of the few
Soviet Union wrecks in the Western Hemisphere.
Located on
the Bluff, the park was the vision of the Cayman Brac
Quincentennial Committee and is the home of the
acres of woodland on Cayman Brac’ Bluff, the reserve
is an important breeding habitat for the Cayman Brac
Parrot. The Bright Road, a traditional footpath across
the Bluff, forms part of a nature trail.
lighthouse and a newer model. Both are just lights atop
tall towers but the view from this area is dramatic. What
makes the view dramatic is the 140-foot-high Bluff, the
highest point in the Cayman Islands. A trail weaves
its way to the edge of the Bluff and provides excellent
photo opportunities. Rocky paths snake their way along
the Bluff; wear hiking boots for this challenge.

RELAX
Feel your tensions ebb away as the sultry
Caribbean breeze caresses your skin. The
turquoise sea, unimaginably blue, sparkling
brilliantly next to powdery white sand
beaches. Dive our legendary sites. Go bird
watching, hiking, beachcombing, fishing,
snorkelling or simply laze the day away in
a hammock beneath a palm tree. So many
delectable temptations. So much to savour
on this tiny island treasure. Small yet
utterly spectacular. Little Cayman. Here,
you can truly relax in body and soul.

of Red-Footed Booby and an increasing
population of the threatened West Indian
Whistling Duck.
Heritage Sites &
Nature Trails
Explore a nature lover’s paradise
where the sound of the outdoors surrounds
you on a hike along the Salt Rock Nature
Trail. Discover orchids, butterflies and birds
in the forest, and a pirate’s well and the
remnants of phosphate mines from the
1800s.
The call of the sea is irresistible here. You
can snorkel in the shallow reef-protected
sounds or dive the famous Bloody Bay Wall.
We also offer both deep-sea and fly-fishing.
And for a quiet day where you picnic and
laze your time away, take a kayak trip to
Owen Island.
glimpses of life in the Red-Footed Booby
colony.
Stroll through Blossom Village and
feel the history of its single, narrow street,
echoing from the traditional Caymanian
houses that line it. Call in at our museum,
and visit our village park – the site of the
Cayman Islands first settlement in the
1600s.
We strive for nature and fauna and
ask that you please leave the flora and
fauna untouched and our beaches and
trails pristine. We want our island to be as
beautiful when you return.
Booby Pond is a designated wetland of
international importance – a Ramsar site,
that protects the largest colony of RedFooted Booby, a magnificent Frigate bird
colony and a large heronry. The reserve is
also a winter haven for large
numbers of migrant
land birds, Herons,
Waders, shore birds
and Terns.

Little Cayman Museum
Blossom Village This area on Little Cayman is probaby the area that was inhabited
by some of the first settlers. It was and still is the main town on this island. Blossom
Village is home to the Quincentennial Monument that was erected in honour of brave
Little Caymainans who dedicated their lives to service to country. These brave men
and women helped to put Little Cayman on the map.
Little Cayman Museum Like the larger sister islands, Cayman Brac and Grand
Cayman, Little Cayman also has its own museum. Opening hours are Thursdays and
Fridays 3pm - 5pm. Admission Free
Little Cayman National Trust House This traditional Caymanian cottage
overlooks the Booby Pond Nature Reserve; telescopes on the breezy second-floor
deck permit close-up views of their markings and nests, as well as the other feathered
friends. Inside you’ll find shell collections, panels and dioramas discussing endemic
reptiles, models “in flight,” and diagrams on the growth and life span of red-footed
boobies, frigate birds, egrets, and other island “residents.” The shop sells exquisite
jewellery made from Caymanite and spider-crab shells, extraordinary duck decoys
and driftwood carvings, and great books on history, ornithology, and geology. Opening
hours Mon - Sat 9am - noon and 2pm - 6pm. Phone 345-948-1077
