Three small islands to form British Overseas Territory of the Cayman Islands, balanced precariously one side of the Cayman Trench, the deepest part of the Caribbean. While the whole world synonymous with banking, tax havens and beach holiday, there is more to this nation, little pride, even if you have to look pretty hard to find.
What's so surprising about Cayman in the beginning is how they are un-English - will be difficult to design a more Americanized place of Grand Cayman, where the ubiquitous SUV crammed for space in a large mall parking lot and the U.S. dollar changed hands as if they are the eyes national currency.
Only the occasional portrait of the Queen or the Union Jack fluttering ever begged to differ. This contradiction is only the first of many you'll find the islands while getting to know this. The key to understanding what makes the Cayman ticks away from the bustling commercialism of the long western coastline of Grand Cayman and explore the entire island. Better yet, leave Grand Cayman at all and visit the charming 'sister island' of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. Here life goes slower and delicious natural to see people coming back again and again - from bird-watching and hiking to diving and snorkeling - is never far away.
Cayman may not have the dramatic landscapes and lives of many of the rest of the steamy Caribbean night, but in their place you'll find interesting people, independent and very warm, spread across three islands boast a lot of the charm of a quieter life.
