BRAC ACTIVITIES |
| |
| |
Rock
Climbing:
 |
| |
|
The sheer face of the 140-foot-high, limestone bluff
at the eastern end of the Brac offers excellent opportunities
for experienced rock climbers, and this activity is
growing in popularity. A number of routes up the cliff
have already been mapped out.
|
| |
Spelunking:
|
| |
| Several
of the caves in the bluff are roomy, open and can be easily
explored by amateur spelunkers. Some can be accessed easily
from the road. You can view bats in Bat Cave, and Great
Cave has beautiful rock formations. Bring a flashlight
to explore the cave recesses. Historically, these caves
have provided islanders with shelter during hurricanes. |
| |
Hiking/Birdwatching:
|
| |
| Nature
is the main attraction on Cayman Brac, and hiking trails
are the best means to get close to the exotic flora and
fauna, including many species of native and endangered
birds, such as the Cayman Brac Parrot and West Indian
Whistling Duck. |
| |
Fishing:
|
| |
| The
shallow areas around the coastline of Cayman Brac are
havens for Bonefish and Tarpon. Catch-and-release fishing
can for these species can be a blast. The deep waters
offshore offer excellent big-game fishing, as well. |
| |
Cars/Scooters/Bikes:
|
| |
| There
are several ways to get around the small island of Cayman
Brac. For a motorized excursion, you can rent a car or
feel the fresh air on a scooter. If you'd like to sample
the island's road-accessible attractions under your own
power, bicycle rentals are available. |
