The biggest of the Cayman Islands trio, Grand Cayman is known for its limestone reef and spectacular coastline. With crystal clear waters and beautiful white sandy stretches, the island's eastern side tends to be more rural and less developed. In contrast, the island's western side is more tourist-friendly and home to George Town, the capital of Grand Cayman.
Next to George Town you will find the Owen Roberts International Airport (GCM), which serves a number of airlines, including Cayman Airways and Cayman Airways Express. The airport is located on the south-eastern side of George Town and is the Cayman Islands' premier airport.
