Here's Wikipedia's link that describes Cayman Brac in detail.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cayman_Brac
Cayman Brac From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Cayman Brac is an island that is part of the Cayman Islands. It lies in the Caribbean Sea about 145 km (90 mi) north-east of Grand Cayman and 8 km (5.0 mi) east of Little Cayman. It is about 19 km (12 mi) long, with an average width of 2 km (1.2 mi). Its terrain is the most prominent of the three Cayman Islands due to "The Bluff", a limestone outcrop that rises steadily along the length of the island up to 43 m (141 ft) above sea level at the eastern end. The island is named after this prominent feature, as "brac" is a Gaelic name for a bluff.

The Teignmouth Electron, the boat in which Donald Crowhurst attempted to sail round the world single-handed in the Sunday Times Golden Globe Race, has been left to decay on the south coast of Cayman Brac.

Christopher Columbus sighted Cayman Brac and its sister island, Little Cayman, on 10 May 1503 when his ship was blown off course during a trip between Hispaniola and Panama. He named them "Las Tortugas" because of the many turtles he spotted on the islands. The Cayman Islands were renamed by Sir Francis Drake, who came upon the islands during a voyage in 1586. He used the word "Caymanas", taken from the Carib name for crocodiles after seeing many of the large crocodilians. Many people believe he had only seen the Rock Iguanas that inhabit the island today.[citation needed]

During the heyday of piracy, pirates would use Cayman Brac as a haven and a place to replenish their supplies as there are a number of fresh water wells on the island and had many sources of food included in the local flora and fauna.

"Diving: Of interest to scuba divers is a 100 m (330 ft) Russian Koni class frigate built in the Soviet Union in 1984 for the Cuban Navy. It is one of only a few sunken Soviet naval vessels in the Western Hemisphere, and the only one that is easily dived. The Koni II class frigate was purchased and sunk by the Cayman Islands government in September 1996. Originally designated 356, the frigate was rechristened the M/V Captain Keith Tibbetts, after a well-known Cayman Brac politician. The wreck is the only Russian warship that divers can explore in the Western hemisphere.[1] It originally sat upright at a depth of 27 m (89 ft) [2] with the deck at 18 m (59 ft), until wave action generated by a winter Norwester storm (December 1998-January 1999)[3] which nearly tore the ship in two. The result was that the fore section tipped to about a 45 degree angle in relation to the remainder of the still-upright aft portion.[4] and the midships became a debris field. The wreck's stern area was essentially unaffected. The frigate is located in a sandy area with generally good visibility, 200 m (660 ft) offshore (a fairly long swim) from 'Buccaneer', on the island's north side, near the western tip of the island. There are numerous openings in the upper portion of the ship for non-wreck certified divers. Many more openings are available since the ship broke in half. The site also serves as an artificial reef. Other interesting dive sites are Radar Reef, Cemetery Wall, and the Wilderness Wall,[5] all well covered in corals and with a wide diversity of marine life.

Caves
Cayman Brac also appeals to visitors of many persuasions besides divers.

Caves are found around the island, offering spelunkers a glimpse of delicate underground formations. Steps and, in some cases, ladders have been constructed to allow visitor access to more remote caves. One cave, Rebecca's Cave, contains the grave of a young girl lost in a struggle against the ravages of the great 1932 Cuba hurricane."

Rock climbing
Rock climbing was developed beginning in 1992 and the island now contains about 100 sport climbs.

Walking and Hiking trails
Walking and hiking trails have been opened by the Nature Tourism Program which allow exploration of the island's dense Karst forestation. Unique flora and fauna thrive here and can be observed in the wild.

Fishing
Cayman Brac's waters are especially utilized for both fishing and the pursuit of big game fish”.

A home, host and island you will not regret
This was the second time we have stayed on the Brac. Our first VRBO was obviously nice enough that we came back to the island. The Brac Beach House exceeded our expectations in almost every way. The house is immaculate, yet lived in. Everything is white and the fit and finish is excellent. Rosanna is an excellent communicator and has an almost endless supply of helpful ideas on how to spend your time in their beach home. While the home is named a beach house, the beaches in the Brac are not the wide expanses of sand that you might find in other areas of the world. Sturdy shoes are required for walking, and booties are required to enter the water. It is nevertheless idylic. We were able to do a lot of snorkelling at various places around the island. Most visitors to the island seem to be divers. I think that one can easily dive from the BBH. The master bedroom and bath are exceptional, however the bath for the second bedroom is more modest, yet functional. BBH would be a great place for two couples to stay and explore the island. It is about a 15 minute drive from the airport and the two dive shops. My wife and I stayed for three weeks, and could have stayed longer. Places like the Brac, and the Brac Beach House are increasingly rare to find.

Beautiful stay at the Brac Beach House
Rosanna was the perfect host in every way imaginable. The property exceeded our expectations as did the island itself. If I could give more than 5 Stars, I would! The only complaint was that we weren’t able to stay longer than we did to enjoy the sunsets, sunrises, venturing into the water, and relaxing with a gorgeous view from everywhere in and around the house! We couldn’t have been happier with our entire visit to Cayman Brac and the Brac Beach House.

Amazing vacation!
Brac beach house could not have been more perfect for our family vacation. Two large bedrooms with king size beds, multiple dining arrangements including a table on the outdoor patio overlooking the ocean, and a fully stocked kitchen for meal preparation. Cayman Brac is the perfect destination to get away from the hustle and bustle and relax and read a book or do a puzzle. Rosanna helped us with every detail of our trip including Covid testing and contacts for fresh lobster for dinner. It was the perfect vacation!

This property is lovely...bright and clean inside, and an amazing view outside. Every room is perfectly laid out, and there is plenty of room. The host (Rosanna) sends tons of great information, and answers questions immediately. Cayman Brac is a very small, very quiet island. But if that is what you are looking for, you can't find a more ideal place to enjoy it than the Brac Beach House.

My husband and I enjoyed our week stay at the Brac Beach House in November. The house is well appointed, spacious, and the view of the sea from all rooms is incredible. Rosanna (host) provided detailed information regarding all aspects of the house and the island including restaurants, dive and snorkelling sites, grocery stores, caves, and more. We do not dive but if you do this island is definitely the place for you. Exploring different sites along the north and south roads was part of our daily routine. The island is small and quiet which made our vacation very relaxing. The Brac Beach House is simply outstanding!

We’ve been to Cayman Brac more than a dozen times and stayed in various beach front homes. This house is definitely on the top of our list! Beachfront of course, but also roomy, extra comfy couches and beds, a huge master shower, and a very spacious covered back porch. It is also the most well-stocked house we have ever stayed in anywhere. The kitchen, the laundry, and the bathrooms were so well stocked it truly felt like home. If we needed it, it was already there. Owner was very easy to reach and provided lots of useful home and island info. We will definitely be back to Brac Beach House!

We rent homes often and this is one of the nicest beach houses we have ever rented. We were met at the airport by a representative, taken to the house and given the key & instructions. Rosanna (owner) could not have been more accommodating. She answered all questions and gave suggestions, prior to our arrival. The house was extremely clean and well cared for, with attention to detail. I cannot say enough about this property or the Owners. You can dive from the shore plus they have a new kayak for use. We will definitely be back!

Christmas on The Brac
A setting to relax and have unhurried family time. The island was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Access to groceries was easy. Barracudas restaurant/bar was our favorite local eatery. If you are looking for quiet and slow this is definitely the place to come. We did not SCUBA, but we did snorkel everyday. There is very little life in the reefs close to shore. The waters were choppy there on the north side of the island. We did find some calmer waters on the south side.

Brac Island Life
The property is a well built user friendly property. One can easily waste the day away on the lovely and spacious veranda overlooking the ocean as the waves lap at the shore. Comfortable King size beds provide and easy nights sleep. The home is located in a quiet area and well located to grocery stores, restaurants and “The Bakery”. A few lizards and the hermit crabs provided critters for the youngsters to enjoy watching. The house is located at and near great snorkel and dive sites. We received plenty of information about the home and the island before arriving but the available information in the home made finding anything on the island extremely easy. Staying here was a good decision and will be an easier one in the future. We look forward to a future visit.

Beautiful house with incredible sea views!
Our family spent just returned from two weeks at the Brac Beach House. I'm still daydreaming about having my morning coffee on the veranda as the waves break against the shore just a few feet away. Brac Beach House is an amazing place to get away from it all. Aside from an occasional shore fisher down the beach or visits from some friendly neighborhood pups, the location at the end of the road was very private. It is one of the best maintained and outfitted homes we've rented in the Caribbean. We did not dive during our visit, but found plenty to do. Snorkeling and kayaking from the shore right in front of the house, caving all around the bluff, sightseeing..and relaxing. Rosanna is a fantastic owner and went out of her way to communicate before and throughout the visit to make sure all our questions were answered. We are definitely planning to return again soon!

Perfect setting!
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful house! The house recently changed owners and we had initially booked our stay under the prior owners (formerly Lankford House). We chose this property because of the many positive reviews under the prior listing, and definitely made the right choice! The new owners are great and put us completely at ease about the change. Everything went very smoothly. The property manager met us at the airport, waited while we got our rental car, and then led us to the house to settle in. The house was as good or better in person than the pictures. It was clean, well maintained and well equipped. We did all our cooking at the house and only went out to eat once (to the Barracuda Bar, which had good pizza). The owners, Rosanna and Larry, were very helpful and extremely responsive. They provided lots of good information about activities on the island. We did a lot of hiking, exploring caves and the island in general. We snorkeled right in front of the house and saw many cool fish. We also spent a lot of time just relaxing and enjoying the beautiful front porch and gorgeous views. We would definitely return again and highly recommend this property!

Fantastic getaway
Just returned from an awesome stay at Beach House. My wife and I were looking for a quiet place to relax and listen to the ocean, away from it all, and this house delivered wonderfully. The house was clean, well maintained, private and has a magnificent porch for taking in the ocean, rain or shine. We made use of the well stocked kitchen, as we enjoyed purchasing groceries at the island market and generally preparing our own meals. We brought our own water shoes and snorkeling gear, but we aren't the particularly adventurous sort, so we just waded into the ocean from the shore (which is right there!), and enjoyed viewing the sea creatures in shallower depths. Still spotted a ray, some squid and a myriad of fish! As others have mentioned, this location is not a sandy beach, so plan accordingly. The host was very thoughtful and responsive, and will definitely assist with questions and suggestions. But the house had everything we needed and then some! Some of the other things we enjoyed on the island were Sushi Tuesday at Barracuda's, hiking the island trails, getting fresh bread from the local bakery and fresh produce from the farm market. Every evening we were back at the house, though, soaking in those ocean sunsets. Definitely can't recommend this house enough, and definitely would return.

About the host

Hosted by Rosanna Sickels

Host profile image
It all started way back when...My husband had an extended USMC leave off the coast of Spain. I joined him and we rented a very small car, called a “Seat”, appropriately named. We purchased a rubber raft, paddles, snorkels, and fins. We tossed the inflated raft over the roof of the “Seat” and could barely see out the front window & drove down the steep mountainside to the beaches of the beautiful Costa Brava. We shoved off with our paddles & snorkel gear in hand, slipped over the side of rubber raft and couldn’t believe what we saw!! We were hooked!

We've been scuba diving with family & friends for several years now. We've always enjoyed exploring beaches, caves, bluffs, hiking trails, etc. ! We're sure you will thoroughly enjoy diving, relaxing, and exploring Cayman Brac as well!

Why they chose this property

Cayman "Brac Beach House" is truly one of a kind! The "Brac Beach House" combines the ability to stay active, if you so choose. It also allows you to unplug & just listen to the lapping waves from your porch or from any of the four 8' sliding glass doors which open to the Caribbean Sea.

All rooms are spacious and very attractive. The master bedroom suite has a king size bed and includes an ensuite bath with large, glass block shower for two! And the second bath has a king size bed and a twin bed too. This bedroom has tub/shower combination. Both spacious bedrooms open onto the porch with spectacular views of the Caribbean Sea!

Soak up the sun or relax in the shade on your 12' x 54' veranda. Or walk out on the jetty and immerse yourself into the sea!

Enjoy beautiful sunrises to the east over the bluff and breathtaking sunsets to the west right from your bedroom or from the living area of the house!

Excellent swimming, snorkeling, shore diving, and kayaking right from your Caribbean beachfront yard.

Also check out the numerous marked shore diving sites available around the island. See the Shore Diving Guide to Cayman Brac developed by: SITA/Sister Island Tourism Association booklet available for your use. The booklet has shore diving details on several shore dive sites. Great details about each shore dive on the island.

Please also see our website for more great shore diving and world class boat diving options on the island!
