4FRCruising Posted April 18, 2007 #2 Share Posted April 18, 2007 We`re planning on going to Caymen island in oct. Anyone out there been to Hell ? Whats it like, is it a town for shopping or what? There is a post Office/Gift Shop (small....but you can get a T-Shirt that says "I've been to Hell and Back"), a disco/nightclub that probably won't be open while you are there, and the bunch of black "rocks" that give the location its name (with a "devil" standing in the middle of them). The tour I was on stopped there for about 15 minutes. I wouldn't take a taxi just to get there......as part of a Full Tour (island/stingray city) - well its part of it and only way I'd go there again.

TRIBE1959 Posted April 18, 2007 #3 Share Posted April 18, 2007 We went as part of the basic Island tour. Kids got their passports stamped in Hell with a lil devil on the stamp. Basically it's a gift shop n post office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One hot mom Posted April 19, 2007 #5 Share Posted April 19, 2007 If you're getting off the ship and heading that way anyway, it's worth stopping in. Otherwise, as others have said, its pretty much a run down gift shop with flimsy t-shirts and the rock formations outside. I made the mistake of asking our guide if the kids across the street were practicing for the Hell soccer team. Was quickly corrected that there's no town of Hell --it's just that converted gas station/gift shop that's there for the tourists! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouWho Posted April 19, 2007 #6 Share Posted April 19, 2007 We took an 1 1/2 hour "tour" around part of the island. Hell is a little place with some odd looking black rocks. There is a post office/junk store there too. You can send post cards that will be postmarked "Hell". A neat stop on the way to something else. Definitely not worth taking a cab to just that. Our tour "guide" stopped for less then 10 minutes. It would have been long enough if we weren't trying to send a couple post cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
margie4233 Posted April 20, 2007 Author #7 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Thanks all for the info. I guess if we go in that direction for something else, then we`ll see it , if not we won`t waste the time . Again, thanks for the input!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
