George Town is a city situated on the Grand Cayman island of the Cayman Islands. It serves as the capital of the Cayman Islands, in the British West Indies. As of 2007, the city had a population of 28,836, making it the second largest city (by population) of all the British Overseas Territories.

George Town's city limits extend from the east at the edge of the South Shore District, north just beyond Owen Roberts International Airport, south to Hog Sty Bay and west to Seven Mile Beach and the West Bay District. George Town's famous Seven Mile Beach is a long crescent of coral-sand beach extending up to the West Bay region of Grand Cayman and is the most popular and populated area for tourists on the island.

George Town is a popular port of call for the Caribbean with cruise ships anchoring in George Town Harbour Tuesday through Friday.

Passengers disembark in George Town, in the center of the Grand Cayman shopping district and usually remain anchored from early morning until mid-afternoon.

Personal Review

I used to live in George Town. My grandmother was a Caymanian by birth. The best things I love about Cayman is the fresh air and breeze, taking a walk on the Seven Mile Beach, eating at a restaurant overlooking the sea. Wonderful and mesmerizing experiences can be discovered here. If you're a photographer, the island can give you some great shots. This place is great for taking a vacation.

If you're sick of the cold and want a break, I suggest you come to Cayman today. And since you found this blog and read my article, you'll be granted cheap flights via clicking here.
