The Cayman Islands Will be Open to Vaccinated Travellers from 20th November

The Cayman Islands has announced that it is moving to Phase 4 of its reopening plan, which means vaccinated travellers who are securely verified can enter without quarantine from the 20th of November.

After almost two years with limited international travel, many travellers are now looking to winter sun destinations for their next therapeutic escape – and there’s no better choice than this premier destination nestled in the Caribbean.

“The health and security of our residents and visitors have always been the government’s number one priority, and our Covid experience throughout the pandemic has been exemplary to date. With a high percentage of the population now vaccinated, we are keen to relax the current restrictions and move to Phase 4 of our reopening programme on 20 November. This will bring an important return to normality for travel and tourism on the islands in time for the holidays.” said Hon. Kenneth Bryan, Minister for Tourism and Transport.

The Cayman Islands has followed a controlled reopening strategy to ensure the ongoing safety, security, and peace of mind of visitors and the local population.

More indigenous species than The Galapagos
From the endangered Blue Iguana, the red-footed booby and the banana Orchid (the national flower of the Cayman Islands) to spectacular bioluminescence, stunning stingrays and three species of turtle, visitors will be wowed by the local flora and fauna.

Grand Cayman offers nature lovers a wealth of experiences, including swimming at Stingray City, hiking the glorious Mastic Trail, which winds through an extensive nature reserve and exploring the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park.

Little Cayman offers tranquil locations, including Point of Sand and Booby Pond Nature Reserve, where avid wildlife lovers may catch a glimpse of local species, including the red-footed booby. Cayman Brac’s Whistling Duck Pond and Parrot Reserve are ideal for keen twitchers.

Of course, with such diverse marine life and crystal clear waters, snorkelling and diving offer a fantastic chance to get up close to some of the Caribbean’s most iconic sea creatures.

The Culinary Capital of the Caribbean
Farm-to-table dining at George Town’s Cayman Cabana and sea-to-table delights at Cracked Conch by the Sea is top of the agenda for some, while high-end dining at Blue by Eric Ripert or Abacus’s sophisticated Caribbean cuisine may tickle the taste buds of others. Those wanting to expand their food horizons beyond restaurants can take in a tour to discover rum distilleries, local markets and farms.

From Cayman-style lobster, seared lionfish and cracked conch to rum cocktails, organic fruit and wood-smoked barbecue, there is something to tantalise everyone’s taste buds.
