This edition was published in 2004, and now there is a newer and better version recently published featuring updated data for streets and addresses as of 2009. For staunch fanatics and cult followers of Google Maps, there is nothing on the internet currently that comes close to matching the details and accuracy of the new Street Atlas, which retails at local book stores for around US$50.

Location and Geography of the Cayman Islands

The Cayman Islands comprises Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman. The three islands are situated in the western Caribbean, about 150 miles south of Cuba, 480 miles south of Miami, Florida, and 180 miles northwest of Jamaica. George Town, the capital, is on the western shore of Grand Cayman. Geographically, the Cayman Islands is part of the Cayman Ridge, which extends westward from Cuba. The Cayman Trench, the deepest part of the Caribbean at a staggering depth of over four miles, separates the three small islands from Jamaica. This steep drop-off creates some of the most spectacular scuba diving in the World.

Grand Cayman, the largest of the three islands, is approximately 22 miles long with an average width of four miles. Of its total area of about 78 square miles, almost half is wetland. The most striking feature is the shallow, reef-protected lagoon, the North Sound, which has an area of about 35 square miles. The island is low-lying, with the highest point only about 60 feet above sea level. Cayman Brac lies about 89 miles northeast of Grand Cayman. It is about 12 miles long, with an average width of 1 1/4 miles. Its terrain is the most spectacular of the three islands. The Bluff, a massive central limestone outcrop, rises steadily along the length of the island up to 140 ft. above the sea at the eastern end.

Little Cayman lies five miles west of Cayman Brac and is approximately ten miles long with an average width of just over a mile. The island is low-lying, with a few areas on the north shore rising to 40 ft. above sea level. Together, the islands have a land area of about 100 square miles. There are no rivers on any of the islands, but there are large areas of luxuriant vegetation. The coasts are largely protected by offshore reefs and in many places by a mangrove fringe that often extends into inland swamps that play a key role in the islands' ecology.

Almost 2,000 acres of dry forests and mangrove wetland are protected by the National Trust for the Cayman Islands. An internationally acclaimed system of marine parks is managed by the Cayman Islands Department of Environment.

No, I did mean "not even inaccurate". As in worse than just not accurate. These maps look like unfinished throwbacks to the early 90's Flash technology, pre Google imap coding.

These maps are nothing but a waste of time. The few things that do display are not even inaccurate. Get a Google map, they're free! Great amusement though... "for the first time, interactive maps..." had me ROFL!

Quoting ken:

If the maps are "not even inaccurate," then that means they're accurate - so why are you complaining, moron?

The maps need some work, but for anyone interested in seeing actual property addresses they are the only game in town.

Not user friendly at all, and most web pages were not coming up. Tried to find my house for the fun of it, and it didn't even recognize the street address. Please refer to google maps when you want to create something like this.

Lots of complaints here about the map. Any other Cayman websites that have better maps? What about Ecay or Cayman Activity guide?

Anyone out please post comments with links to other helpful maps of the cayman islands. Thanks.

I have to agree, these maps are pretty bad, 90s technology. Google maps are free, get 1!

Yes, these maps do suck! Old clunky flash maps, these some of the worst. It takes 10 minutes just to zoom, then they scroll off screen, and half the roads are dead ends! Do us all a favor and get a google map that works!

Best place to look for rentals in Cayman Islands is Ecaytrade: http://ecaytrade.com/index.php?catid=56

Rental rates are not cheap here unless you live out of town. The further out you go the cheaper it gets.

UCCI is here: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&q=Olympic+Way,+George+Town,+Grand+Cayman,+Cayman+Islands&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=39.047881,79.013672&ie=UTF8&geocode=FaEsJgEdAS4m-w&split=0&hq=&hnear=Olympic+Way,+George+Town,+Grand+Cayman,+Cayman+Islands&z=16

So you would need to be looking in the George Town/South Sound area to be close to the campus.

All post to Cayman Islands has to be addressed to a PO Box as we don't have postal deliveries. You'll need to find out the person's PO Box address otherwise your package will not be accepted. Best alternative to send package to physical address is by DHL or FedEx.

I typed in 802 West by Road and got a list of unintelligible address with single quote marks and numbers after the street name. I chose one and got a fuzzy map with nos such road. I am looking for the exact location of the Grand Pavilion Commercial Centre.
