Cayman Craft Market

[sunlover2]

There will be 4-5 ships in the day we go to GC (sites differ between 4 and 5 ships). We have read about the craft market. Has anyone gone/experienced this market? How far is it from port? Any info would be very much appreciated! Thanks!!

If you're at the farthest terminal, you're about a 15 minute walk along the water. It's very small, it's not like the straw market in Nassau. (Vendors are also very friendly and polite, and you won't get hassled.)

Thank you BookBabe. Just curious....are there any places along that walk where there maybe a beach entrance?

Nope, the downtown area is all ironshore (rock walls) so there's no beach. There's snorkelling via stairs into the water at the Eden Rock area near there, but the closest beaches are Seven Mile Beach and Smith Cove, which both really need a taxi or bus to get to.

There will be 5 ships in port total.
