Boatswain's Beach & Cayman Turtle Farm

Boatswain's Beach & Cayman Turtle Farm

Boatswain’s Beach is a combined marine fun park, turtle farm and living museum, complete with hammocks swinging on the porch of candy-colored cottages.

From the laid-back islander lifestyle of Cayman Street to snorkeling at Boatswain’s Lagoon, swimming at Breaker’s Lagoon and holding turtles in the Touch Tanks, the combined Boatswain’s Beach and Cayman Turtle Farm is a one-stop Cayman Island experience for the whole family.

Sharks and eels swim by at Predator Reef, butterflies flutter by along the tranquil Nature Trail, and Cayman parrots, doves and ibis wait to be fed at the aviary.

The folk at Boatswain’s are also big on conservation, saving, nurturing and releasing green sea turtles.

Practical Info:

Boatswain’s Beach and Cayman Turtle Farm is on the northern tip of Cayman’s western peninsula, 8 miles (12.5 kilometers) from Georgetown.
