Walking Mangrove Tours

Mangrove forests are one of the most valuable coastal ecosystems on the planet and the natural beauty of the Cayman mangrove channels in Barkers National Park is breathtaking. Mangroves exist in estuaries when saltwater comes together with freshwater and these incredible plants can be recognised by their striking root systems, which delve beneath the surface of the water to prop up the plants above. The Cayman Islands Mangrove Rangers are ready to educate you on the important biological relationships at work in the mangroves.

Beacon Farm Tour

Beacon Farms operates as a not for profit and provides a safe and sober work environment for Caymanians recovering from drug or alcohol abuse.
