George Town
George Town is best known within the Cayman Islands for serving as the territory’s capital and principal port. Set on Grand Cayman’s west coast beside the Caribbean Sea, it is the administrative and commercial centre of the three-island British Overseas Territory. Cruise ships call at its harbour, while the waterfront connects the compact town centre with the island’s long, resort-lined western shoreline. Caymanian culture is closely tied to the sea: the Cayman Islands National Museum occupies the former Old Courts Building, a 19th-century waterfront landmark in George Town. Local restaurants and markets draw on fishing traditions, and the town remains a practical base for exploring Grand Cayman’s beaches, reefs and coastal districts.

Few cities in the Cayman Islands have a history as closely tied to seafaring and British colonial administration as George Town. The capital occupies Grand Cayman’s western coast on the Caribbean Sea, where its harbour remains central to the islands’ connections with the wider region. The Cayman Islands National Museum documents local maritime heritage, natural history and cultural traditions, while Heroes Square is a civic focal point in the centre. George Town’s compact waterfront sits near the island’s busy commercial district, with the celebrated sands of Seven Mile Beach farther north.

The Cayman Islands stretch from Grand Cayman in the west to Little Cayman in the east, encompassing low limestone islands ringed by Caribbean reefs. Grand Cayman is the largest and most urbanised island, with George Town as the capital and a long sweep of sand at Seven Mile Beach. To the east, Cayman Brac rises sharply from the sea, while Little Cayman remains lightly populated and closely connected to diving and marine conservation. Cayman waters also edge the Cayman Trench, an exceptionally deep feature of the Caribbean seafloor. The Cayman Islands National Museum in George Town traces the territory’s maritime life and heritage. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of the Cayman Islands.
