lawiggin Posted April 21, 2008 #1 Share Posted April 21, 2008 We have rented a car to go to Rum Point for the day. Is there anything local (bar, restaurant, sightseeing) on the road that we should not miss? I keep thinking there must be something besides the beach to do while we are seeing the island.

KroozMeister Posted April 21, 2008 #2 Share Posted April 21, 2008 There is the Queen Elizabeth Botanic Park about halfway there, if you're into that sort of thing. Pretty Gardens with blue iguanas wandering about - it's kinda nice. I think you can also arrange a snorkeling tour from Rum Point - it's really close to Stingray City. Other than that, I can't think of anything - Grand Cayman is a pretty laid-back place. Beaches & snorkeling are pretty much the things to do there. (Since those are my favorite things to do, no wonder it's one of my favorite ports! :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookbabe Posted April 22, 2008 #3 Share Posted April 22, 2008 The Pedro St James historical site is also (more-or-less) on the way to Rum Point. Their website is http://www.pedrostjames.ky/ for more info on it. There are quite a few restaurants/bars that you'll pass on the way, but it's probably a lot easier to just wait and eat/drink at Rum Point... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkletoes4445 Posted April 23, 2008 #4 Share Posted April 23, 2008 The best gift shop on the island is about a mile out of town. The front of the building (it's an old house) faces the street you will turn on, and it will be on your left side, as you are leaving town. http://www.pureart.ky/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not on the route from the airport where many car rental firms are based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each time we go over to that side of the island, that's the direction we go (past Pure Art). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
