Best Pizza Ragazzi www.ragazzi.ky Ragazzi (meaning ‘good buddies’ in Italian) with its vibrant colors, authentic wood burning pizza oven and central location, it has become a meeting point for family, friends and repeat customers many times over. Ask a local and they will say the food at Ragazzi is exceptional and consistently good.

Stingray City World Famous Stingray City Stingray City in Grand Cayman is the most popular location visited for the exception of our beautiful beaches. Grand Cayman actually offers two distinctly diverse Stingray Cities, a largely unknown fact to the majority of future visitors to Grand Cayman. This article will help you decide which Stingray City is right for you, the Stingray City Sandbar or The Valley of the Rays, the Real Stingray City. The History of the two (Stingray) Cities: For many years fisherman returning from their day at sea anchored in the shallow and protected waters of the North Sound to clean their catch. The area, just behind the Barrier Reef, created the optimal location to anchor a boat without the discomfort of waves. At the "Real" stingray city the anchorage area was very close to the main channel of Barkers, and a few paddles away from famous Fisherman Rock. The area is a few minutes away from the shores of Wes...

Activity Passenger Pick of the Month SNUBA Cayman One of the best Cayman activities that all ages and stages can enjoy without being a certified diver is to learn how to SNUBA!  It takes snorkeling to the next level!  We decided to catch up with Becky Lucas, an Operational Manager with SNUBA Cayman to find out more about this interesting way to get closer to the fish and coral reefs. PP:   So Becky, what exactly is SNUBA? BL:   SNUBA is an acronym for Surface Nexus Underwater Breathing Apparatus.  SCUBA is Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus.  So the biggest difference between SNUBA and SCUBA is we supply your air from the surface through a hose to you, as opposed to you wearing a tank on your back. PP:   What do you need to get certified?   BL:   SNUBA is run all over the world and it is a great way to get under the water without needing to be certified.  It’s safe and easy even...
