Grand Cayman Tips

Cayman Islands law prohibits all forms of public nudity, including topless sunbathing. In accordance with local customs it is also recommended that you wear a shirt, dress or beach cover-up unless on the beach.

The Cayman Islands dollar (CI$) is on a fixed exchange rate with $0.80 CI equal to $1.00 US. The US Dollar is accepted throughout Grand Cayman. ATMS are available on the island. American Express, Discover, Mastercard and Visa are also widely accepted.

Many restaurants automatically add a 10-15% service charge to the bill. You are welcome to tip extra if you feel the service warrants it.
