RRLLAL Posted October 11, 2010 #1 Share Posted October 11, 2010 We have been to the Caymen Islands before and may not be taking any excursions this time. Done all the ones that interest us. Anyway, even though we've been there, we can't for the life of me remember what the pier area was like. Are there little shops or a framers market type area right off the ship?

Fourseventeen Posted October 12, 2010 #2 Share Posted October 12, 2010 yeah there are some small shops right there in the pier center as well as across the street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m steve Posted October 12, 2010 #3 Share Posted October 12, 2010 within a few blocks of the pier. Just bring a lot of money. It's not a cheap port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovevacadays Posted October 14, 2010 #4 Share Posted October 14, 2010 There are a few shops right when you get off the tender and then lots of shops, bars and restaurants across the street and down several blocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tropicbird Posted October 14, 2010 #5 Share Posted October 14, 2010 There is no pier per se in Grand Cayman. All the ships anchor offshore and you tender in on small boats. The ships pull up just off the main drag, so you are literally right downtown when you step off the boat. Plenty of restaurants, shops, strip malls, etc. within a few blocks. No need to take a bus or taxi "downtown". Beaches are, however, a few blocks to a few miles away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to spend the day wandering through bars and shops there are plenty within walking distance to keep you occupied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
