Grand Cayman has lots of wonderful shopping options for souvenirs, new resort wardrobes, and much more. Cardinal Avenue, Elizabethan Square, West Shore, and Queen’s Court are some of the favorite island shopping areas. George Town has several shops that feature goods from old shipwrecks, including old coins, including Dutch coins, Greek coins, and Spanish coins. They can be pricy, but some deals can be had, though the real fun is just looking and touching these very old coins that were once the bounty on sunken ships! Cayman rum and rum cakes are not to be missed. Try a few varieties – they are available in most every shop on the island – to try your favorite. But make sure that you try Tortugas, fabled to be the very best rum cakes in the Caribbean. They are available in most local shops and also the airport, though they have a factory store that you can visit as well.
