along the waterfront area. Many travelers also walk along Seven Mile
Beach, strolling to dinner and back to their hotel. If you are staying in East
End or West Bay, however, consider another transportation option.

AUTHORS' NOTE

: Driving is on the left side
on the Cayman Islands, so pedestrians should
always look to the right before crossing the
street.

By Scooter
Scooters are available for rent at several locations on Grand Cayman.
Cayman Cycle Rentals ( 345-945-4021) has a shop at Treasure Island

Resort, the Hyatt Regency Grand Cayman, and Coconut Place; scooters
average about $25 per day. A temporary Cayman islands license, available
from the rental agency, is required to drive a scooter and riding experience
is necessary; see pages 45-46 for details.

By Bicycle
With their relatively flat grade, the Cayman Islands are wonderful for bi-
cyclists. On Grand Cayman, along West Bay Road, be prepared for ex-
tremely heavy traffic during morning and evening rush hours. On Little
Cayman, bicycling is one of the best means of travel and complimentary bi-
cycle use is available from most accommodations.

Guided Tours
Guided tours are a good way for first-time visitors to get a good overview of
the nation. They are available from most taxi drivers for about US $37.50
per hour for four persons; you can also check with your hotel tour desk for
possibilities. Island tours typically include the Cayman Turtle Farm, Hell,
Seven Mile Beach, and other attractions. Prices start at US $25 for a two-
hour tour and run up to about $66 for a full-day trip.
