Apex and Grand Cayman

[onefishtwofish]

Just looking for suggestions from those of you that have BEEN to Grand Cayman recently (as in Jan/Feb or so far in March) regarding a beach you would recommend since 7 Mile is really so eroded now and many buildings under (re)construction.....looking for a nice beach area with chair/umbrella rental and restaurant/bars as well.....doesn't have to have snorkeling.  Best transportation to and from as well....there does not appear to be a beach day excursion by itself offered by Celebrity.....

 

Thank you!  😁

Or does anyone have recent info on Coral Beach? Someone just recommended to check that out, but anyone have CURRENT info on it?

 

Thank you!! 😁

You can also look at Trip Advisor for recommendations on beaches.  I am not read up, as we are going snorkeling on Grand Cayman.

Who did you book with for snorkeling?

I booked through Celebrity.  It is The Original Stingray City, reef snorkel.  You are NOT at the sand bar.  It is a 3 hour trip.

Update:  Canceled snorkel tour and booked the Coral Beach excursion through Celebrity.  Yes. it was expensive, but a small bus took us there and was ready waiting for our return.  The area had plenty of loungers and umbrellas to sit under. You need to take about 7 steps down to the sand.  Water was warm and no sargassum.  Lunch and a rum punch was provided. Restrooms and a souvenir shop on site.  

I am sure a taxi can be taken, the return trip could be a hassle.
