Shopping .............. Cayman Activity Guide ................ 67<br />

Galleries & Local Crafts<br />

Locating those perfect mementos to preserve your vacation<br />

memories in your home forever is one of the most important<br />

vacation decisions you will make. With hundreds of shops<br />

to choose from, the task can be quite daunting so we have<br />

compiled our selection of the most popular galleries off ering<br />

the greatest talent, diversity and value, capturing the beauty,<br />

culture and essence of the Cayman Islands. All of our recommended<br />

establishments produce their art, craft, jewelry and<br />

other items in the Cayman Islands, making them duty free.<br />

Plan at least half a day to explore all the shops and galleries<br />

listed in this section. You will not<br />

only save time and money while<br />

viewing the most exciting arts and<br />

crafts on the island, you will meet<br />

a cast of exciting and entertaining<br />

characters along the way. Avoid<br />

shopping in Georgetown on Tues–<br />

Thurs, which are the busiest cruise<br />

ship days; any other day—except<br />

Sunday when many stores are<br />

closed will off er the least congestion and easiest parking.<br />

Paintings of every kind, carvings, statuettes, photography,<br />

sculpture and jewelry are among the many items available<br />

to choose from. Before setting out on your gallery day,<br />

think of places in your (or friends) home that could use a<br />

little splash of color and ethnicity and then juxtapose that<br />

onto your favorite type of art – the perfect choice is now<br />

reduced to a matter of selection.<br />

Underwater Photos are available in every conceivable<br />

format at Cathy Church Gallery.<br />

Cathy has been one of the most<br />

famous underwater photographers<br />

on the planet for over 20<br />

years. Don’t miss this opportunity<br />

to meet her and see the amazing<br />

collection she has on display,<br />

along with the best deals on digital<br />

cameras & housings.<br />

Hand Crafted Jewelry and Statuettes, made from local<br />

material such as Caymanite and Black<br />

Coral (imported) as well as a dazzling<br />

array of internationally procured substances<br />

is on display at Mitzi’s. Mitzi<br />

herself is a work of art and one of<br />

Cayman’s greatest treasures. Stop by and meet the legend!
