Currency Accepted When
Shopping In Grand Cayman

The Cayman currency is worth more than the U.S. Dollar (for as long as I can remember). However, you will not have to change out your own currency.

The vendors will gladly accept U.S. Dollars and the Pound Sterling (Cayman Islands still belong to England and there is a Governor General on the island representing the British Crown). 


So, are you ready to visit the Grand Cayman Cruise Port and check out all the great shops in Grand Cayman?

Book your cruise and let us sail. You will find great deals and treasures when shopping in Grand Cayman.
