I'm not sure what the problem was with the other reviewer who said the place was creepy, dirty. or smelly. For starters, animals ARE smelly - go to any zoo, small holding (or farm for that matter) and you will smell animals! From what I understand, many of the animals the owner keeps are unable to live in the wild,... More

My husband and I visited the Bodden Town Pirates' Caves/Zoo after passing it a few times on the way to the house we were staying in. We weren't sure what it was all about, but we are glad we stopped in. Gil(the owner) was an awesome guy who welcomed us and seemed genuinely happy to see us visit. He showed... More

This place is Silence of the Lambs creepy. Seriously. Don't go. Our visit lasted approximately 15 minutes - we got about 1/4 of the way through the 'zoo' and turned around, got back in our car and left. Where to begin? The upkeep is terrible - it really is some guy's backyard. Bugs, smells, cages, unkept animals. The keepers I... More

First of all, let me be clear before I begin writing this review. I have traveled to many places around the world, however there are only a few places I would take the time to write a good review about. Recently, I had the opportunity to visit the Pirate’s Caves in Grand Cayman Island with my wife and two daughters... More

We had read the reviews here, and were not sure that we wanted to stop, but we were glad we did. We went in knowing it was an animal rescue, as well as the "caves". It was a good opportunity to see some of the native animals up close. The owner was very happy to tell us about some of... More

Our family read about this attraction in one of the local things to do magazines and it sounded interesting. The book said to allow about 1.5 hours to explore, but it only lasted 10 min. for us. We were highly disappointed in both the care of the animals (one had an open wound) and what this place had to offer.... More

If you are an animal or nature lover you won't regret taking the time to go visit The Pirates' Cave in Bodden Town. My husband and I have visited Grand Cayman 3 times since 2009 and we have found ourselves wanting to make time to go to this place each time. We rent a car and enjoy driving all over... More

Interesting place, but may not be worth going out of your way to get here. Pirates Caves is more than just a cave, it’s also a mini-zoo and a mini nature trail. Once you pay for a ticket, you are welcomed into the mini-zoo area where they have parrots that can perch on your arm if you ask one of... More
