There are several Grocery stores in town, "Fosters Food Fair" in East End, just walking distance from Morritt´s! Foster's Food Fair is one of four large food stores on Grand Cayman.
- Foster’s Food Fair: Upon leaving the airport on Owen Roberts Drive, you arrive at a STOP sign. Take a left and continue no more than ¼ mile where you’ll find Foster’s on the right.
- Hurley’s: Continue past Foster’s 1/3 mile until you come upon another STOP sign. Stay to the left and continue around the foot of the runway and follow signs eastward to Boddentown and East End. You are now on Crewe Road. Approximately 1.8 miles further, on the left as you navigate a roundabout will be Hurley’s supermarket in Grand Harbour Plaza.
The other two markets are on West Bay Road on Seven Mile Beach. Kirk Supermarket is closer to Georgetown, at the corner of Eastern Avenue and West Bay Road.

What should I bring?
Wow, that’s a big question, but lets see if we can provide a basic overview. I would suggest sun block, sunglasses and beachwear. A nice pair of Bermuda shorts and a polo shirt will get you in to any restaurant on the island, as this is a very casual place. We supply beach towels at no charge. There are hairdryers in
all units. There are irons in The Grand, but not in The Morritt’s Tortuga Club. There is a laundry room that offers facilities for ironing. If you like music, you may wish to bring a CD player. Snorkeling gear is available for rental from the dive shop at $10.C.I./day, however, you may wish to purchase a set at home and bring it with you... you will find a 7-day rental will just about cover the cost. Many guests like to bring beach umbrellas. Beach lounge chairs are provided and are abundant. Be sure to pick up your limit at the duty- free, as alcohol is quite expensive here on the island.
If you bring food items from the abroad such as meats they must be in the original package and USDA approved. We suggest you retain receipts of any overseas purchases to present to local customs agents.
Any further questions can be directed to our resort representatives.
