Hi Peter!
I recently returned from a Disney Fantasy cruise, and my family is still talking about what an amazing experience we had on this spectacular vessel! Your crew is in for seven days of excitement and fun on this newest member of the Disney fleet!
Grand Cayman is a beautiful port of call especially the area known as Seven Mile Beach. The water is clear, calm, and perfect for snorkeling. When your family arrives on the island, they will have to tender over to the mainland. It doesn't take long to be ferried over, and once they arrive they will be in the capital, George Town. Seven Mile Beach is a short taxi ride away, and there will be plenty lined up at the dock. If they don't want to worry about getting transported to the beach, they can always book the
Seven Mile Beach Break Port Adventure. A beach chair and beverage is included, and snorkeling equipment and food is available for an additional charge. A great snorkeling adventure you might also consider is the
Shipwreck and Reef Snorkeling. On this excursion, you will explore a famous shipwreck, reef and marine life.
If your family chooses to visit Seven Mile Beach on their own, there are public beaches located toward the north end and the hotels' bars and restaurants are open to non-hotel Guests. Snorkeling equipment and water sport rentals are also located on the beach for their convenience.
I hope my suggestions help. Please let me know if you have any further questions!
Nancy
