I am visiting for Easter and staying near Bodden Town.

I will be visitibg 7 Mile Beach a few days, Georgetown, West end and a few days in east end exploring.

Thanks for any insight.

Have you looked into Stingray City? I thought it was fun when I went there a long time ago. I would avoid it when there are multiple cruse ships are there.

Good morning,

Thanks for the vote to stingray city. Anyday in the turquoise waters sounds fun to me.

What's your fav budget-mid resto on 7 mile beach area? I like a good beach bar with chill vibes.

We like Macabuca at the north end of 7 mile beach. Not a beach bar but on the water. You can snorkel off of there if it's not too choppy. Luca is amazing for Sunday brunch but will likely be mobbed on Easter. Also check out the bioluminescence tour with Cayman kayaks.

Thx, islandbound.

We went to Macabuca the other night. Its fantastic. There were a few snorkellers tho the water was very choppy.

7mb is stunning, no seaweed. No loud music permitted on the beach.We had drinks at Tillies. Food was off, however service was attentive.

We also took a 25usd redsail sail to rum point for supper. The pizza was phenominal and the service was on point...then back to the docks (not camana bay docks) for a night sail. Arrived at dock at 945 pm. $ drinks on board. I strongly recommend this 20 mins ferry service for a special night out. Theres something about a starry night that captures eternal hope in the young at heart.

A few observations.

The bus service is excellent along 7mb and west bay. Easy transport for everyone. The drivers are exceptionally patient and safe during loading/unloading.

Rental vehicles are 50usd/day from airport. A very affordable option.

I use ci:go app for taxis. It was 3 usd less than walk on from airport.

I saw a food delivery bike service. I did not catch the name. Happy?? Something.

Fosters grocery store is expensive. It has a small bulk section (think costco) and very clean isles. Amazing selection.

Keep the recommendations coming.
