Walk off the ship and...

What is there to do walking distance from where you disembark/tender? Is there a place to go where you can snorkel on your own? Is there a need to get a bus or taxi to explore Georgetown?

The port area is right in the middle of downtown Georgetown, so there's lots to do within easy walking distance...shopping, food, a museum, snorkelling at Eden Rock...

Bookbabe is right. There is plenty to do near the tenderdock. Eden Rock is a short walk to the right as you leave the dock. For more info read the first Sticky at the top of the Cayman board.

We walked to Eden Rock to snorkel and it was fantastic. We rented a locker for the day for $5 and that was our only expense.

 

Next time I think we will check out Cheeseburger reef which is in the other direction.

OK, what is Cheeseburger reef??

[sunandsnow]

Cheeseburger Reef got its name because it is in front of Burger King (also by the Lobster Pot restaurant). Snorkeling right off shore.

We took the submarine excursion(booked through the cruise), but basically you walk off the dock to the street, turn right and walk approx. 4 blocks. Coming back, we crossed the main road, and visited the museum, and there is the cutest gift shop mall with high end souveniers. Get off the main drag and the prices and unfortunately so does the quality. We really loved the Cayman's they are clean and beautiful.

Sub is just to the right of the pier and no reason at all to do it thru cruise line.
