A Catamaran Charters Grand Cayman Cruise Could Be The Holiday Of A Lifetime

By Kevin Howard


Sailing is the perfect way to enjoy an island holiday and catamaran charters grand cayman is the perfect way to visit and enjoy the wondrous beauty and tranquility that is Cayman Islands. The ideal combination of accommodation and transport, modern catamarans are luxurious, well equipped and best of all, affordable.

With its two hulls structure, a catamaran has a lot more room than than boats with single hulls. Extra room means more space for leisure areas and bedding, whilst maintaining sufficient space for food preparation and bathrooms. Without a central keel they do not lie as deep in the water giving them the ability to enter and explore shallower waters.

Being very stable they are also an ideal base for water activities such as swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, scuba diving and fishing. If this sounds a little too energetic, just chill out and enjoy the endless rays of Caribbean sun or sip a cocktail while fresh fish cook on your on board barbecue. There is really no limit to the number of ways one can relax and forget the rest of the world floating off the idyllic coast line of Grand Cayman.

If just floating around on the ocean is satisfying enough, then great, yet one would be missing out on some amazing sailing and coastline tours. There are some ninety nine miles of stunning shore to explore with many attractive and interesting stop off points throughout, although some never feel the need to venture beyond the secure confines of North Sound.

Should pure relaxation prove to be too much, other places of interest throughout the island will not disappoint. Waist high shallows cover sand mounds, located in the west of North Sound and named Sting Ray City, where visitors can literally mix with plentiful colonies of Southern Stingray that have made this their own uniquely special place.

Diving down among the shipwrecks is another definite on the must do list. The wreck Cali is ideal for beginners as it is very close to the shoreline, around 40 yards, so will be within easy reach for most swimmers. Experienced divers will love the ex US Navy ship Kittiwake, which lies in deeper waters but still relatively near to the renowned Seven Mile Beach. Having 5 decks and plenty of rooms for exploring it is a fascinating dive. As it lies within the Marine Park, it does have certain regulations to be observed and fees to be paid, so maybe good to do this one with a chartered dive team.

Named by some travel organizations among the best top dozen beaches in the world, Seven Mile Beach is situated on the western side of the island. Despite being in one of the most exclusive areas it is fully open to the public. Coral sands and sparkling waters, just a stroll along the beach is a pleasure with restaurants, resorts, beach bars along its length. With activities galore, try paragliding for example. The length is a point of conjecture, however, because it is not really seven miles long, but nobody seems to notice, or care.

Getting off the catamaran might be difficult, but the shopping delights of Camana Bay, or perhaps a tour round a Rum Distillery or the National Museum in George Town, the capital, will make it very rewarding. Equally worthwhile are the fauna and flora to be found within the botanical gardens and on the Mastic hikers route. With space only to mention a few attractions, these are truly like the proverbial top of an iceberg. Naturally icebergs are one thing the visitor need not be concerned about.
