Grand Cayman with two teenage active boys (what is the best beach that has activities

[sail-away2015]

We will be on the Brilliance April 6-11 We are so excited. Itinerary says docking 7am to 3 pm. As none of us are early birds and do not care to be on a tour. What is the best self travel beach for two active teens? We dont plan on being the first off the boat :) Maybe a leirsurely breakfast and and departing later in the am after the rush. Any suggestions on how to get there also apprecitated!

If weather conditions are favorable, Public Beach has water inflatables. Just up the beach is Calico Jack's and they have jet skies, banana boat and parasailing.

That sounds perfect! How do we get there? How far is it?

Seagrape has the watersport rentals.....food/drink, restrooms and lounger/umbrella rentals, there, too! (BTW, ALL beaches are public and free to use! However, the hotels, loungers are not!!)

 

Hop on the bus and tell them which beach you want to stop at... About 1 block past the tender dock is the bus stop! $2.50 pp....very easy and reliable! When you're ready to come back, stand by the road, and a bus will stop!

Seagrape/Calico Jacks's/Public Beach are all within 200' of each other located on & 7 Mile Beach.

The other transportation option is a mini-bus for 5.00 p/p located just off the pier. There will be locals to direct you to either transportation option.

Fair warning.

 

Depending upon the age of your teens they may not be allowed to operate a jet ski, even if you sign for it.

 

One large watersports operator (Red Sail Sports) requires the operator of a jet ski to be at least 15, and cannot take a rider along unless the operator is at least 18. IIRC.

[sail-away2015]

I figured that. Hopefully they will have other things they can do on their own. I dont think they will want to ride in the back with their moms!

@runner15km ! Best advice ever! Boys had a blast! We did too! Great drinks at calico jacks! Took the bus! The only downside is we couldnt stay longer!

sail-away2015, I'm glad your family had a great time.

 

 

 

Sadly Cayman had a fatal jet ski collision today (April 15, 2015) in the Seven Mile Beach area. The utmost of caution is always warranted when operating jet skis.
