Queen Elizabeth II
Botanic Park
Queen Elizabeth opened this park in
1994. This beautiful setting houses the
island’s Blue Iguana Recovery Program,
where the endangered iguanas are
bred with a view to re-populating the
island. You will see them nonchalantly
sauntering around the park. The garden
itself is beautiful and fun to explore.
There’s the Woodland Trail, Colour
Garden, The Lake, Orchids, Butterflies
and more. Stop by their gift shop for a
souvenir or a book.

Cayman Turtle Farm
This is a conservation facility where the
island’s endangered green sea turtle are
raised. There’s a lot to learn about the life
of turtles on the farm’s interactive tours.
You can hold the baby turtles, get into
the tank with them or swim with them.
The turtle farm isn’t only about turtles
though. Kids will certainly enjoy the
water slide, the resident crocodile which
is quite entertaining and for the bird
lovers, there’s an aviary. www.turtle.ky
