*Closed for the Summer Season and Reopening Thanksgiving 2018 The Cayman Motor Museum, located on Grand Cayman in the Cayman Islands, is a unique attraction that features some of the world's most special, rare, and one-of-a-kind automobiles. On display are 80 vehicles which collectively provide an historical tour of motoring throughout the world! An exact model of the first vehicle ever to be driven in the Cayman Islands — a 1905 Cadillac — has a place of special prominence in the museum and “royal watchers” will be attracted to the 1956 Daimler DK400, Queen Elizabeth II’s first limousine. Racing and speed aficionados will marvel at the sleek Ferraris, Maserati’s, Corvettes, and Jaguars. Magnificent Rolls-Royces (including a 1930 “Phantom”) and Bentleys abound, beckoning viewers back to an era of meticulous craftsmanship and unsurpassed luxury. The Museum is a great cruise ship excursion or a great place to spend an afternoon while on vacation to the Cayman Islands. Our gift shop

    An air-conditoned room with cars, coffee grinders
    This is a fairly new museum on Grand Cayman's (west end, close to the Turtle Farm, the Tortuga Rum Cake store and the Cracked Conch restaurant). We had some time to kill and a cool car museum fit the bill. Enter through the gift shop, then go through some doors to see a line of red cars - Ferraris, Dinos. All the signage was very good and the other displays were interesting, as well. We saw antique children's cars, a collection of old coffee grinders, a diner setting from the distant past (seniors would recognize this), a copy of the Bat Mobile, Cayman's very first automobile, and many other antique classic cars - all shiny and well-preserved/restored. The museum is not large but it does attract tour groups from the cruise ships, we were told by the manager. All in all, it was a pleasant change from beach, water or shopping activities.

    Nice place to visit on a hot day
    if you go I suggest you do so between one and 2:30 in the afternoon after the cruse ship passengers have left - it is not large and it can feel crowded if a large party is there at the same time you are. A nice way to spend a half hour or even a bit more.
