Hell

July 12, 2024

Hell is an area within the district of West Bay. Its name comes from a group of short, black, limestone formations located in the area. Its eerie and rather sinister look is what gave it its infamous name. It is roughly the size of half a football field.

Thank you Ras!

Flags of the World - Cayman Islands

July 06, 2021

The Cayman Islands Flag, the official ensign, was adopted in 1959, shortly after the Coat of Arms was adopted. There are two versions of the flag - the blue for use on land and the red for use at sea. These are based on the British blue and red ensigns. The lion represents  Great Britain, and the stars are for the islands of Grand Cayman, Little Cayman, and Cayman Brac. The turtle is for the islands’ original Spanish name Las Tortugas and for the numerous turtles still living there. The pineapple recalls the islands’ connection with Jamaica, which has five pineapples in its coat of arms.

Thanks so much Nathaniel!
