The Cracked Conch by the Sea

📍Location: Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands Travel tips: I was initially attracted by the label of "global diving paradise", but after landing, I found that this is a seriously underestimated treasure in the Caribbean! There are no crowds in the Bahamas, no commercialization in Cancun, only glass sea, white sand beach and coquettish manta rays🐠... 3 highlights encountered 1️⃣ Being hit by the "undersea sweeper" in the stingray city I thought manta rays were "cold creatures", but as soon as I got into the water, I was surrounded by more than a dozen "big flying carpets"! They will rub your palms with their slippery bellies to beg for food, just like the underwater version of "cat masters". Tips: It is recommended to choose a morning boat, when the fish are more active! Remember to wear a jellyfish suit to avoid being scratched by the tail spines (although they are very docile). 2️⃣ Enter the crystal caves Cayman Crystal Caves, which has almost no online guides! Follow the guide deep underground, stalactites reflect blue light under the lights, transparent blind fish swim in the underground lake, and any photos taken with your phone are magical movies📸 (the cave is humid, wear non-slip shoes! Tickets include explanations, don't go there by yourself)! 3️⃣ The dusk of Seven Mile Beach cured my mental exhaustion Don't go to the public beach to squeeze in the crowds! Walk 1 kilometer north and contract the entire jelly sea🌅. At sunset, locals will drive painted sailboats across the golden and pink skyline. It's worth it! (Secretly: the beach behind the Ritz-Carlton Hotel has the least people!)! Food experience session 🍴Lobster roll + ceviche = YYDS! Highly recommend the "Cracked Conch" restaurant next to the George Town Pier! The Caribbean-style spicy and sour pickled fish completely subverts my perception of raw food, paired with freshly baked coconut bread, 200+ per person to eat Michelin feeling! The boss told me that the secret is to use Cuban lime + local devil pepper 🌶️! 🥥 "Sea Grape Smoothie" is more addictive than milk tea The green "dark cuisine" at the roadside stall made me drink it for 3 days in a row! Sea grapes are a specialty algae in the Caribbean. They are mixed with mango and mint to make a smoothie. The taste is like a combination of popping beads + jelly. After checking the key, it is low in calories! A guide to avoiding pits summarized with blood and tears ⚠️ Visa minefield: You must apply for a British visa + a US transit visa at the same time! Personal experience: A sister was stopped at Miami Airport because her US visa EVUS was not updated! 💰 Price warning: Mineral water starts at US$5/bottle! It is recommended to stock up at Foster's Supermarket when you land (10 minutes by taxi from the airport). Sunscreen is twice as expensive as in China, so it is better to bring your own! 📸 Photo taboos: Military facilities/government buildings are prohibited from being photographed! I have seen tourists taking photos of the customs building and being asked to delete the photos. Don't cross the red line! Postscript: For you who are here for the first time Transportation: There is no Uber on the island! Contact the hotel in advance to book a shuttle (average price is US$50/trip), or rent a golf cart and drive yourself (international driver's license required) Accommodation: Resorts along Seven Mile Beach are the first choice, but if you want to save money, you can stay in Bodden Town B&B, where turtles lay eggs when you open the window! Season: Dry season from December to April is the best, but room rates are 50% off from May to November! The actual impact of hurricane season is very small, so it's a good bet~ Travel is not about escaping from life, but about learning to see the world with new eyes! #Secret Garden of the Caribbean #Creative Incentive Plan to Divide 10,000 Yuan Cash #Cayman Islands In-depth Tour #Niche Island Ceiling #Niche Discovery Club
