Hi all

I plan to visit Georges Town next summer.

Is it easy to retrieve someone in Georges Town ?

Thank in advance for your personnal advice

I'm afraid that while I don't know, I think I may know someone who does. Gordon Barlow runs an expat blog for Cayman Islands and seems like quite the expert. You can reach out to him in the forum, or once you have commented in the forum a bit you can use the network (this is to prevent spam).

Best of luck, and do let us know what you find out.

You should be able to do it now that your rank is set as "backpacker"

Hi
Yep, This is it!

I will visit George Town, on July, from the Friday 19/07 until Friday 26/07/2013
I found a cheap hotel, this is the Treasure island resort. Not too far from downtown

If you had to share some strong advises w/ me, like about bus lines to go to Omega Bay in example or where to dive, it will be great

All the best
JY

JY. I had to look Omega Bay up on the map; I'd never heard of it. It seems to be a new residential development; it's not a bay, at all. The only reason you would want to go there is to check out a piece of land you were thinking of buying. There is no bus, except along the main road along the south side of the Island; it would be about a 2 km walk to Omega Bay from there. From Treasure Island you would need to take a bus into the depot in town, and catch another one from there to the east. They will tell you at the hotel. Treasure Island probably has a scuba operator on the premises, as most of the hotels have.

Any other questions?

jaguar1637 · 12 Juin 2013

Hi Gordon
Thank you very much

I am looking also for paintings (made by painters here)
I tried without any success to find one gallery on the web
Do you know any gallery or shops in George Town ?

Regards

Jaguar. Cayman New Resident (Google it) will answer pretty much any question you have. Here is its page for art galleries.

Gordon Barlow · 12 Juin 2013

Jaguar. Email me with any other questions: barlow@candw.ky. That way I don't have to look at Cyril's choice of photo for me every time.

But that was the photo you told me to pick ???!!!
If you want another one, just tell me (I have one with palm trees if you want) or if you still do not want anything, fine, we remove it.

But the point of the forum should be that questions and answers are public (if not very personal of course); that way it helps also other visitors with similar questions and that how you share knowledge.

jaguar1637 · 12 Juin 2013

lol
But, I like the photo for Gordon
I thought the picture was made when arriving on this lost island

When I will be there, I will take too a picture of myself

Gordon Barlow · 15 Juin 2013

Behind the Public Library. You can't miss it.

jaguar1637 · 25 Juin 2013

Well Gordon

Is there any currency change desk at the airport ?
Also, which currency should I bring ni Cayman ? GBP ? EURO ? $ ?

I can bring US dollars, but I am not sure, if could be simpler to bring Euros. What do you suggest as the best ?

Thank in advance
