The Cayman Parrot Sanctuary offers a friendly, interactive and educational experience for the whole family. Come face-to-face with Cayman’s native animals, discover the Islands’ indigenous plants and explore unspoiled natural landscapes.

The Sanctuary is home to a number of animals including the Cayman Parrot, the national bird of the Cayman Islands. There are also agoutis, rabbits, guinea pigs, cockatiels and various reptiles. Families can enjoy feeding the frigate birds which swoop down from the coast. Children can run wild in the two playgrounds, take a breath in the shaded seated area and experience the thrill of zip lining!

After hours of fun, families can tuck into some delicious food delivered by Tukka East, which serves fresh local seafood with an authentic Australian flair and a Caribbean twist.

Hours

Wednesday-Sunday 9am-4pm. Open on Public Holidays.

What to Expect

Very cute little animal sanctuary with not only birds but snakes, scorpion, turtle, fish and a "Cayman rabbit". They did have some talkative birds and they were so pretty. There are 2 cages you can go in and experience holding the birds (conure cage and the cockatiels). They are very friendly and love to fly to you to be held. The staff will provide you with feed for them. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They let us go in the Cayman rabbit area and gave us food to feed him. So friendly and fun to watch him come running to us when called. They also allowed my daughter to hold a Black Cayman Racer snake. She loved it. There a few playgrounds in the area for the little ones. It makes for a great stop for a few hours and kids will love it.

My kids loved it! If your kids love animals, then do it! It’s pretty small, but we had a fabulous experience with Tukka for dinner and saw this heavily advertised. It honestly is like a little hobby zoo, but the staff is so friendly and you get lots of hands on attention. I thought we would be there like 30 minutes upon seeing how small it was, but we were probably there an hour and a half. My kids could have stayed another hour just to play on the playground but I was hot and ready to sit on the beach! The whole Tukka “family” was pretty great. I thought the restaurant was one of the best on the Northside as well.
