WHAT YOU VISIT

Grand Cayman is a veritable paradise. Its sun-drenched shores and crystal-clear waters are a magnet for endangered green sea turtles, rum cake aficionados, and curiosity seekers with the notion of posting a letter from Hell! This intriguing half-day tour takes you on a fun-filled adventure linking island attractions with spectacular scenery and unusual topography. Hell is one of those intriguing places no visitor to Grand Cayman should miss. It's a desolate place, a strange, almost lunar landscape, and while there is no smoke or fire, one can imagine brimstone in Hell's black limestone formations. Turning Hell into an amusing place to send your friends a postcard is just part of the island fun, and Caymanian stamps are available on board.

After meeting your driver/guide at the pier, your scenic drive to Hell is the perfect way to kick off your Grand Cayman adventure. Bring your camera and snail mail and enjoy the first stop on this intriguing itinerary! Then you're off to the Turtle Centre. The Cayman Islands once had a multitude of turtles in the surrounding Caribbean waters (which is why Columbus called the islands "Las Tortugas"), but today, these creatures are sadly few in number, and the green sea turtle has been designated an endangered species (you cannot bring turtle products into the United States). Visitors can observe turtles in every stage of development in various concrete tanks. Turtles at the Centre range in size from 6 ounces to 600 pounds.

One of Cayman's tasty island delights, you'll visit the Tortuga Rum Cake Center, where you'll learn the story behind Tortuga Rum, a unique blend of Jamaican Rum and Barbados Rum, and the world-renowned rum cakes that feature Tortuga Rum among the ingredients. Created from a secret family recipe in 1987 by Carlene Hamaty, the cakes were imbued with an exclusive distillation of Tortuga's now award-winning premium Gold Rum. From the beginning, demand was high; today, you can visit a Tortuga Rum cake center. Watch the luscious delights and treat yourself to a free finished product sample. Now internationally famous, it has won more awards than any other rum cake in existence. The Hamaty family recipe remains a guarded secret. Even requests from Gourmet Magazine were politely declined. However, you are more than welcome to take home a Tortuga Rum Cake as a sumptuous souvenir of your Grand Cayman adventure: an unforgettable tour that concludes with a scenic drive back to the pier.
