I think the attraction of this place is just the name itself. The features of the rock formations that gave it the name are fun to look at if you like that sort of stuff. We got there and it was raining heavily, which wasn't bad, but it cut the look around a bit short. Where we stopped, there was... More

This was included in the sightseeing tour I took.. but I would not have went out of my way to go to Hell. Good for a few pictures and over priced post cards and bumper stickers, but not much else. More

It's literally some dark limestone, a post office, and a souvenir shop. It's cute to be able to say "I'm in hell"...but that's about it. More

Going to Hell and back is a novelty, but not worth the money it costs to ride the bus there. There is nothing to see other than a tacky gift shop that doesn't offer up much variety. You can send yourself or someone you know a post card from hell, but not worth the time. More

This was a fun little stop on our tour, not sure exactly how big the town is but they have this cute red building which sells post cards, souvenirs and they will even stamp your passport that you have been to Hell. Even in the modern age of electronic emails, texts and social media - sending a post card with... More

Very interesting name for a pile of rocks. I wouldn't likely stop there again, but at least I can say I've sipped coconut water in hell! More

It is definitely hot in he'll and if you go you have to stop off at the post office where you can send postcards postmarked from hell. Friendliest staff, extremely helpful and we can't wait to return. Definitely a must see when in the cayman Islands. More

We were fortunate to be on the island for 2 months, so of course we visited this attraction. I sent a postcard back to the US and it arrived a month later! You can get some interesting photos, if you like that kind of thing. If you can, go when there are not vans and vans of tourists (when ships... More

Okay, so we were warned by just about everyone we met that Hell was a tourist trap that was a waste of time. I already pretty much knew what to expect, but there are some things that are so incredibly dopey, you gotta see them anyway. Hell is pretty much the Cayman Islands version of the world's biggest ball of... More
