Cayman - Shopping

Enjoy A World Of Shopping In An Elegant, Tropical Setting

What could be more exciting than spending a day shopping under a warm sun with a gentle breeze from the nearby ocean carrying you from shop to shop? Whether you are looking for dazzling jewellery, beautiful local arts and crafts or designer clothes, you will be pleased with the quality and selection our stores have to offer you.

In Grand Cayman you never have to go far to shop. In addition to the shops in town, there are many small malls which have restaurants, liquor and gift shops including the new Grand Harbour Center.

Duty-Free Shopping Means Fantastic Savings

Cayman is a duty-free destination which means many exciting opportunities for you to save on such things as watches, china and crystal, perfumes and fine jewelry--including authentic treasure coin jewelry--on Grand Cayman and at a few stores on Cayman Brac. Prices on perfume, watches and select luxury items may be as much as 30% less expensive here.

In addition to traditional duty free selections, varied and interesting shopping--from chic European fashions to outstanding local art--delights visitors in speciality stores, hotel boutiques and shopping plazas.

Amazing Art & Crafts

A growing interest in developing local art and crafts has led to the opening of art and craft galleries featuring local and Caribbean art. Underwater photography services and an excellent selection of underwater photos and prints framed as art pieces are available as well.

You can also arrange for custom underwater videos and photographs of your own diving and snorkelling experiences--a unique souvenir of your Cayman vacation!
