🐢 SWIMMING WITH TURTLES IN GRAND CAYMAN — AND WE DID IT ON OUR OWN! If you're visiting Grand Cayman on a cruise, you may be wondering if you really need to book an expensive cruise-line excursion to visit the Cayman Turtle Centre. Well... we decided to find out for ourselves! Instead of booking a cruise excursion, we walked from the cruise port to the public bus station, hopped on a local bus and made our way to the Cayman Turtle Centre. Then, after spending the day exploring, we made our way back to the cruise port the same way. And this wasn't just a quick look at the turtles! 🐢 WHAT WE DID AT THE TURTLE CENTRE: • Swam and snorkeled with the turtles in the Turtle Lagoon • Spent time in the large freshwater pool • Checked out the restaurant and bar area • Explored the turtle exhibits and outdoor tanks • Got up close to the young turtles in the touch tanks • Saw where visitors can get into the water and gently touch the turtles • Explored the grounds and checked out what the Turtle Centre has to offer • And, of course, figured out how to get back to the cruise port! The Cayman Turtle Centre offers visitors the chance to swim and snorkel alongside young green sea turtles and other marine life, while the freshwater pool provides another place to cool off. The Centre also has supervised turtle encounters where guests can get close to the younger turtles. 🚍 THE BEST PART FOR CRUISERS? We show you our experience getting there WITHOUT booking a cruise-line excursion. If you're planning a Grand Cayman cruise stop and thinking about visiting the Turtle Centre on your own, this video gives you a look at what the experience was like from the moment we left the cruise port until we returned. So grab your sunscreen and come along with us for a Grand Cayman DIY excursion! 🌴 GRAND CAYMAN TURTLE CENTRE 📍 Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands 🚢 Cruise Port: George Town 🐢 Turtle Lagoon 🏊 Freshwater Pool 🚍 Public Bus Transportation 🍹 Restaurant & Bar 🐢 Turtle Encounters If you enjoy cruise ship tours, cruise excursions, cruise tips, port adventures, beaches, snorkeling and travel adventures, make sure to LIKE this video and SUBSCRIBE to U Deserve 2 Travel!
