Cayman Islands News, Articles and InformationLittle Cayman Centre partners with NOAACentral Caribbean Marine Institute (CCMI) and its research centre on Little Cayman are entering into a partnership with the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) through an international project to monitor coral reefs globally.This project is the Integrated Coral Observing Network (ICON), and its partnership with CCMI will provide long-term data sets for Little Cayman that can be compared to all major US coral reef areas, according to information issued by CCMI. It will also provide near real-time feedback on conditions conducive to coral bleaching, as well as other coral reef models, and provide a platform for advanced analysis of the coral reef environment in near real-time. CCMI President, Dr Carrie Manfrino, told Cayman Net News what this partnership means for CCMI and the Little Cayman Research Centre (LCRC). TI returning as part–hotelRenovations to Treasure Island Resort are well on the way to completion and by the end of this year about 50 of its current 290 finished rooms could be available as tourist hotel rooms.The well known Seven Mile Beach resort has been transformed into what will be a mix of apartments for lease, corporate extended stay room and family holiday resort rooms. All its current 290 rooms have at this stage been fully renovated. In fact, one retail space and only a few of TI’s rooms (all with ocean or pool views and access to the beach) are still available for rent. The renovation work, which is costing about $6.75 million, is being undertaken by Restoration Cayman, LLC, a partnership of long–time Cayman resident Harry Lalli and some of his family. Together they purchased the resort in June 2005.

Sailing Freedom of the SeasSome 34,000 gallons of water per minute are rushing over a hump in a 40- by 32-foot cushy gym mat made from recycled tires. It's all rushing at me.The plan: I am going to clutch a boogie board and fling myself headlong down the hump into the face of the gushing gallons. People will be watching. I'm vaguely panicked, but pride demands that I take the plunge. Quicker than I can say Gidget, I'm into the water, down the ramp and back up it again, all twisted around and minus the boogie board. Embarrassing, yes, but Cowabunga! What a blast! The FlowRider surfing simulator is all the buzz on the largest cruise ship at sea, Royal Caribbean's new Freedom of the Seas. It's proven so popular that kids, 50-something business moguls and grannies are standing in line for as much as 45 minutes to catch a wave, then getting right back in line again.
