Some couple’s idea of a romantic getaway includes being alone together secluded and private the whole time, and for others it doesn’t only include privacy, but bonding and adventure.  If you are of this second kind of couple, you may want to honeymoon or getaway to the Cayman Islands, where English is spoken and dollars are accepted.  The Cayman Islands are also one of the few destinations that allow U.S. citizens to marry the same day they arrive.

Cayman Stingrays

For some, adventure can be found in Scuba diving, and the Cayman Islands are famous for excellent wall diving, shipwrecks, clear waters and a beautiful variety of marine life within over more than 250 dive sites.  And if you don’t feel like diving too far you can feed the sting rays with Stingray City, where you can choose to wade in two feet of water, or delve down to 12 feet.  Also you can go to Boatswain’s Beach, a 30-acre marine park that is home to more than 16,000 sea turtles.  It also features their 1.3-million-gallon Saltwater Snorkel Lagoon, where you can swim with the turtles and other marine life, and the Predator Tank, an aviary and iguana sanctuary, a nature trail and the “Blue Hole” sunken cave.

Cayman Scuba

If you want to stay above land, you can choose from parasailing, sea scooters, view boards, sun-searcher floats, banana-boat rides, paddleboats, windsurfing and waterskiing.  Almost every resort offers a water sports center where clients can rent the gear they need to pursue their adventures.

You can also find adventures on the Cayman’s sister islands, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman.  There are 35 heritage sites consisting of forest, beach walks, bird-watching spots, caves, cliff trails and wetland on Cayman Brac.  And on 10-mile-long Little Cayman, you can find un-interrupted beauty, as the small island is home to only about 170 residents.  This island is perfect for taking long walks or bike rides.  This island is also home to many kinds of birdlife, including the largest colony of red-footed boobies in the Caribbean.  Also Iguanas are so abundant on this island that “Iguana Crossing” signs have been posted throughout the island.
