Summary:Been to Hell? - Well if your going to Grand Cayman you can.
Description: Been to Hell? - Well if your going to Grand Cayman you can. Take the family over to Hell, Grand Cayman located near West Bay. This unique site features ancient rock formations that have created a barron and haunting landscape appropiatly named 'Hell'. Hell's intriguing formation, which resembles the charred remains of a hell fire, is weathered from rock called ironshore. Common around the island, but in less dramatic form, ironshore has been estimated at 1.5 million years old. The formation, which looks like volcanic rock, is actually made up of very hard limestone, at one time snow white, now blackened by a surface coating of the algae which are secreting acid and eroding the rock into these unusual shapes. A sturdy boardwalk was established to provide a better access to the rock formation. It's worth a trip...
Thousands of tourists go to Hell each year. They stare, awed by the blackened and jagged rock formation that gives the little district in West Bay its unusual name. They send letters and cards to friends with the HELL postmark clearly stamped on the back - and greetings like "This is a Hell of a place" or "You saw me in Hell first."
Be sure to send a postcard from the local post office and it will be postmarked: Hell, Grand Cayman!
