The Cayman Islands offer some of the best scuba diving in the world and are listed in the top 5 dive destinations in the world. The 1999 census showed the Cayman Islands had a population of 41,000. Most of the population reside in Grand Cayman.

The early settlers were ex-soldiers from Cromwell’s army and other settlers transplanted from Jamaica, together with shipwrecked or marooned sailors. With the introduction of air services in the early 1950s, establishing communication with the outside world, the Cayman Islands commenced building a modern economy.

Today, proximity to the American mainland and social and political stability are the main reasons for Cayman’s economic success. The Islands enjoy a mixed racial composition contributing to a unique atmosphere of racial harmony and compatibility. In 1962, when Jamaica became independent, the Cayman Islands opted to retain its direct links with the Crown and became a separate British Crown Colony.
