Whether you're a sailor or a spectator, Cayman’s annual Easter Regatta is a highlight of the local sailing calendar. Now in its 60th year, this exciting round-the-island race is organised by the Cayman Islands Sailing Club and sponsored by Harbour House Marina. The main race begins in the North Sound, with sailors tackling a challenging 45-mile course heading east around Grand Cayman, while spectators can catch the action from popular viewing spots such as Tukka East, Ocean Frontiers and Over the Edge. On Easter Saturday, some boats will take part in the Back to the North Sound Race, sailing 12 miles back to the North Sound to complete the island circuit. It’s a great opportunity to see local sailors in action and enjoy one of Cayman’s long-standing sporting traditions. Crew places are often available for the event. For more information call (345) 916 6298 or email admin@sailing.ky.
Camping at Easter
Camping on Cayman’s beaches over Easter is traditional in the Cayman Islands. Every year you will see hundreds, if not thousands of people camping on beaches all over the Cayman Islands. It’s a great opportunity for families and friends to get together and reminisce about simpler times, as well as enjoy the natural beauty of the Cayman coastline. Families start marking their spot in the days leading up to Good Friday, when they move in and begin a long weekend of fun filled activities such as swimming, fishing, playing games, barbecuing and generally have a great time!
