Frommer's Tips for Travelers

Snip: Most of the gay and lesbian community regards the Cayman Islands as gay-hostile as opposed to gay-friendly.

In 1998 the Cayman Islands government notoriously turned away Norwegian Cruise Lines Leeward, which was carrying 900 gay passengers. The tourism directors at George Town stated at the time: "We cannot count on this group to uphold the standards of appropriate behavior expected of visitors to the Cayman Islands." The decision drew massive protest in America, with many groups, even travel agents, discouraging travel to the Cayman Islands or calling for a complete boycott of the Cayman Islands.

...and in 1999, we enjoyed our gay-free visit immensely.

Had we wanted to see such perversion on display, we could have saved a bundle, and just driven about 300 miles to San Francisco.
