The Cayman Islands are Grand Cayman, where nearly everything happens, plus Cayman Brac with its limestone bluff and thinly populated Little Cayman. Most visitors land on Grand Cayman and spend their time between Seven Mile Beach and George Town before taking a short flight to the sister islands. Cruise ships anchor offshore at George Town and tender passengers in, so shore time is tight and tour meeting points have to be confirmed by phone with some precision.

A normal trip runs about 700MB to 1.5GB a day for maps, booking boat trips and photos. If you are here partly for work and join video calls from the hotel, budget nearer 2–3GB a day depending on how many meetings you sit in on.
The main airport is Owen Roberts (GCM) on Grand Cayman, close to George Town, with Charles Kirkconnell (CYB) on Cayman Brac and the Little Cayman strip (LYB) taking smaller aircraft. Cruise passengers come ashore by tender at George Town, as there is no deep-water pier. Turn your line on in the terminal: taxis run on set fares and are often arranged by phone rather than found at a rank.
Signal is dense along Seven Mile Beach, through George Town, West Bay and around Camana Bay. It thins on the East End and North Side of Grand Cayman where houses are far apart, and out on the water at Stingray City in the North Sound. Little Cayman has a very small population and usable service is mostly limited to the settlement and the resorts.

Activate the plan before you step onto the tender and make sure the ship's own network is switched off, since at-sea service is billed separately and costs far more. Once ashore, confirm your all-aboard time and the tender landing point, save both to the device, and set an alarm ahead of time, because the queue for the boats back is usually longer in the afternoon than people expect.
Yes, all three islands are the same territory and count as one destination. What changes is how dense the network is: Little Cayman has a very small population, so usable service clusters around the settlement and the resorts. Before flying over, save maps, booking confirmations and contact numbers on the device, because parts of the island have too little signal to look anything up.
It sits out in the North Sound away from shore, so service is unreliable and usually much weaker than on land — assume you may have nothing for the whole boat trip. Confirm the meeting time with the operator before you leave the dock, save the pickup point and their number on the device, keep the phone in a dry bag, and check messages again as the boat comes back towards shore.
Most plans here start when the phone first connects to a network at the destination, so you can install in advance at home and switch it on after landing. Each plan page states its own rule.
No. The eSIM is a second line, so you keep your home number for SMS OTP. Turn off roaming data on the home line and set the eSIM as the data line.
