BRAC ATTRACTIONS |
| |
| |
Bluff/Lighthouse/Caves:
 |
| |
 |
The
limestone bluff at the eastern tip of Cayman Brac
rises gradually from the center of the island, but
drops off as a sheer cliff, 140 feet high, where
it meets the sea. It offers dramatic natural vistas
and supports a lighthouse at its highest point.
The bluff is perforated with several large caves,
which can be safely explored by amateur spelunkers. |

Brac
Parrot Reserve:
|
| |
| The
180-acre Brac Parrot Reserve has been established near
the bluff on Brac's eastern end. Among other birds, at
least 400 endangered Cayman Brac Parrots find their natural
home here and you can observe these beautiful, green animals
up-close from the half-mile long nature trail. You can
also see numerous exotic trees and plants and a few sinkholes,
too. |

Cayman
Brac Museum:
|
| |
 This
small museum is located in the old government building
at Stake Bay on Brac's northwestern coast. Photographs
show the Brac's shipbuilding history and artifacts from
the past include farm tools, carvings, cookware, shipbuilding
tools and even the first telephone system used on the
island. |
| |
Saltwater
Pond:
|
| |
The
Saltwater Pond, on Cayman Brac's southwest coast, is an
excellent place to get an up-close look at the endangered
West Indian Whistling Duck and other native waterfowl.
Though this duck is also found on Little Cayman and Grand
Cayman, as many as 45 of them have been seen at Brac's
Saltwater Pond
at one time. |
| |
Community
Park:
|
| |
|
The
Community Park, at the west end of the island, offers
a nature trail, where special trees and plants are identified
by signs. There is also a playground, perfect for picnics
and barbecues. |
