Cayman Brac is basically a big rock, and the bluff area is the best place to see all the rocks. We saw most of the island attractions by taking a tour with Mossy! For a reasonable fee he took us all over the island, explained most of the history and the geography. While the diving is what brought us here, we fell in love with the entire island, the people, and the history.

Unlike the other Cayman Islands, Cayman Brac is not completely flat. The bluff rises a couple hundred feet above the ocean. Whether you see it from the bottom or drive up and hike around the top, it's a must do. The views are amazing. You'll see nesting boobies (birds) and a variety of incredible fauna. Don't wear flip flops! The rocks are sharp!

Check this place out, its at the end, does not look like much from the road....do the walk and you won't be disappointed... We couldn't get to the caves because of high tide and the windy conditions but we still spent half the day there....bring a camera.....boobies birds.

Walking/hiking here was excellent, along the rocky beach seeing so much with the water, the bluff and the rock formations.

It is awesome to see. You can see different parts of the bluff from all over the island. I think the best view of the bluff we saw was from walkong alonh long beach. It gave us the most sense of awe.

It is definitely worth renting a car to drive the south road to the end. The footing is a bit treacherous, so you need sturdy shows. No flip flops -- you likely will cut your foot on the sharp limestone. Cliffs are very cool. Then do the north road for the opposite vantage. And take the lighthouse road for the view from up top.

A great limestone rock on the east end of the island. We did not climb up there as it was very hot and we were short on time. Worth a visit, however.

Such a great view and easy to get there as well.
You must have a car or rent it.
Plan a morning or an afternoon to do this.
If you are a rock climber you can rock climb there or rappel

Amazing views of the sea. The fresh sea breeze in your face is amazing at 140 feet above sea level. Very refreshing and relaxing.

Take a panoramic shot...you won't regret it. Baby Booby birds make great camera shots. A definite must see with a view you won't ever forget.
