George Town
Christopher Columbus discovered the Cayman Islands in 1503 and named them Las Tortugas, because the only inhabitants found were turtles. By 1530, they were known as the Caymanas, meaning "crocodile" in Carib. Although Sir Francis Drake visited the islands in 1568, they did not come under British rule until 1670. The Caymanians are descendants of the English, Irish, Scottish and Welsh seamen who settled the islands and later intermarried with Jamaican immigrants.

If you are a beginner or experienced snorkeler, then don't miss this unique opportunity to explore one of Grand Cayman's most famous shipwrecks.
Depart the pier aboard your boat for the cruise to The Cali, one of Grand Cayman's renowned shipwrecks. Upon arrival, your guide will provide you with safety instructions, snorkeling techniques and details of the ship's history. You will then begin snorkeling, and the crew will be on hand to provide you with assistance in the water.
Afterward, you will proceed to another popular dive site to see some of Cayman's beautiful reef formations, and an abundance of fish that include sergeant majors, parrot fish, angel fish, turtles and more. Your dive masters will feed the fish to bring them closer to view in the crystal-clear waters. Masks, fins, snorkels and life vests are included, and complimentary ice water will be served on board.
At the conclusion of your tour, you will be returned directly back to the pier.
Please note: This tour is recommended for active guests in good physical condition. This tour is not recommended for guests with limited mobility or guests who utilize a wheelchair. Guests are advised to wear a swimsuit under a cover-up, sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses, and bring a towel from the ship.
