Here's Wikipedia's link that describes Cayman Brac in detail.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cayman_Brac
Cayman Brac From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Cayman Brac is an island that is part of the Cayman Islands. It lies in the Caribbean Sea about 145 km (90 mi) north-east of Grand Cayman and 8 km (5.0 mi) east of Little Cayman. It is about 19 km (12 mi) long, with an average width of 2 km (1.2 mi). Its terrain is the most prominent of the three Cayman Islands due to "The Bluff", a limestone outcrop that rises steadily along the length of the island up to 43 m (141 ft) above sea level at the eastern end. The island is named after this prominent feature, as "brac" is a Gaelic name for a bluff.

The Teignmouth Electron, the boat in which Donald Crowhurst attempted to sail round the world single-handed in the Sunday Times Golden Globe Race, has been left to decay on the south coast of Cayman Brac.

Christopher Columbus sighted Cayman Brac and its sister island, Little Cayman, on 10 May 1503 when his ship was blown off course during a trip between Hispaniola and Panama. He named them "Las Tortugas" because of the many turtles he spotted on the islands. The Cayman Islands were renamed by Sir Francis Drake, who came upon the islands during a voyage in 1586. He used the word "Caymanas", taken from the Carib name for crocodiles after seeing many of the large crocodilians. Many people believe he had only seen the Rock Iguanas that inhabit the island today.[citation needed]

During the heyday of piracy, pirates would use Cayman Brac as a haven and a place to replenish their supplies as there are a number of fresh water wells on the island and had many sources of food included in the local flora and fauna.

"Diving: Of interest to scuba divers is a 100 m (330 ft) Russian Koni class frigate built in the Soviet Union in 1984 for the Cuban Navy. It is one of only a few sunken Soviet naval vessels in the Western Hemisphere, and the only one that is easily dived. The Koni II class frigate was purchased and sunk by the Cayman Islands government in September 1996. Originally designated 356, the frigate was rechristened the M/V Captain Keith Tibbetts, after a well-known Cayman Brac politician. The wreck is the only Russian warship that divers can explore in the Western hemisphere.[1] It originally sat upright at a depth of 27 m (89 ft) [2] with the deck at 18 m (59 ft), until wave action generated by a winter Norwester storm (December 1998-January 1999)[3] which nearly tore the ship in two. The result was that the fore section tipped to about a 45 degree angle in relation to the remainder of the still-upright aft portion.[4] and the midships became a debris field. The wreck's stern area was essentially unaffected. The frigate is located in a sandy area with generally good visibility, 200 m (660 ft) offshore (a fairly long swim) from 'Buccaneer', on the island's north side, near the western tip of the island. There are numerous openings in the upper portion of the ship for non-wreck certified divers. Many more openings are available since the ship broke in half. The site also serves as an artificial reef. Other interesting dive sites are Radar Reef, Cemetery Wall, and the Wilderness Wall,[5] all well covered in corals and with a wide diversity of marine life.

Caves
Cayman Brac also appeals to visitors of many persuasions besides divers.

Caves are found around the island, offering spelunkers a glimpse of delicate underground formations. Steps and, in some cases, ladders have been constructed to allow visitor access to more remote caves. One cave, Rebecca's Cave, contains the grave of a young girl lost in a struggle against the ravages of the great 1932 Cuba hurricane."

Rock climbing
Rock climbing was developed beginning in 1992 and the island now contains about 100 sport climbs.

Walking and Hiking trails
Walking and hiking trails have been opened by the Nature Tourism Program which allow exploration of the island's dense Karst forestation. Unique flora and fauna thrive here and can be observed in the wild.

Fishing
Cayman Brac's waters are especially utilized for both fishing and the pursuit of big game fish”.

Beautiful stay at the Brac Beach House
Rosanna was the perfect host in every way imaginable. The property exceeded our expectations as did the island itself. If I could give more than 5 Stars, I would! The only complaint was that we weren’t able to stay longer than we did to enjoy the sunsets, sunrises, venturing into the water, and relaxing with a gorgeous view from everywhere in and around the house! We couldn’t have been happier with our entire visit to Cayman Brac and the Brac Beach House.

Fantastic getaway
Just returned from an awesome stay at Beach House. My wife and I were looking for a quiet place to relax and listen to the ocean, away from it all, and this house delivered wonderfully. The house was clean, well maintained, private and has a magnificent porch for taking in the ocean, rain or shine. We made use of the well stocked kitchen, as we enjoyed purchasing groceries at the island market and generally preparing our own meals. We brought our own water shoes and snorkeling gear, but we aren't the particularly adventurous sort, so we just waded into the ocean from the shore (which is right there!), and enjoyed viewing the sea creatures in shallower depths. Still spotted a ray, some squid and a myriad of fish! As others have mentioned, this location is not a sandy beach, so plan accordingly. The host was very thoughtful and responsive, and will definitely assist with questions and suggestions. But the house had everything we needed and then some! Some of the other things we enjoyed on the island were Sushi Tuesday at Barracuda's, hiking the island trails, getting fresh bread from the local bakery and fresh produce from the farm market. Every evening we were back at the house, though, soaking in those ocean sunsets. Definitely can't recommend this house enough, and definitely would return.

Incredible scenery clear waters amazing location
This was the first time my husband and I had a vacation in 7 years. I travel the world for a living and often go to incredible places. This house did not disappoint. I think that Beach Brac House worked for us because of so many reasons. Aside from its proximity to the water and access to the pier, the property was also well located, had ample car parking and was quiet. I think that these are the main factors I look for when staying somewhere because there's nothing worse than not being able to sleep or relax when going on a vacation. Aside from the above mentioned, the house itself it's well equipped. There are so many little touches that made such a difference. For example having snorkeling gear and the outdoor shower as well as a place to hang set gear was incredibly handy especially coming out from the water. I think that one of the biggest thing that won me over was the laundry. A simple piece of equipment means a lot. Not having to go somewhere to wash and dry clothes made so a difference to my mind set. I could just unwind and relax and not have to worry about the mundane day-to-day things. Lastly it was nice to get frequent communication from Rosanna with ideas of what to do. It's like having your own concierge service. Overall we had a good stay, no complaints or issues. I highly recommend this property.

We enjoyed the relaxing nature of the house and island… if you are looking to dive, snorkel, hike, and relax by the ocean, Brac Beach House was wonderful… the house is just as pictured, secluded, and stocked with everything you could need, from first aid kit, spices, pots/pans, storage containers, beach towels, grocery bags, and a cooler. The owners are great about recommending activities and dining options… perfect off the beaten path vacation..

Want for Nothing!
Wow! Where do I start? Rosanna & Larry's property is spectacular! Beautifully kept and furnished and right on the ocean. What more could we ask for? Well, we didn't have to ask for anything. From the time we booked and all through our trip, Rosanna provided us with all the information we needed for a trip to Cayman Brac: info on diving and snorkeling, where to get groceries, best places to eat (where and when), maps, rental cars, and the list goes on! And then, when we arrived at Brac Beach House, we were suitably impressed with how the house was outfitted. A typical VRBO rental has the requisite dishes, kitchen wares and towels, but at Brac Beach House – there was so much more! Yoga mats, snorkels and fins dishes and cutlery galore, beach towels, flashlights, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, binoculars and more. Too many things to list here. Suffice it to say, you will want for nothing! Rosanna was also very responsive to our needs. We had a medical issue that required a doctor’s visit and she was in touch with us all the way. She took a huge burden off our shoulders and I cannot thank her enough. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Cayman Brac, look no further!

Brac Island Life
The property is a well built user friendly property. One can easily waste the day away on the lovely and spacious veranda overlooking the ocean as the waves lap at the shore. Comfortable King size beds provide and easy nights sleep. The home is located in a quiet area and well located to grocery stores, restaurants and “The Bakery”. A few lizards and the hermit crabs provided critters for the youngsters to enjoy watching. The house is located at and near great snorkel and dive sites. We received plenty of information about the home and the island before arriving but the available information in the home made finding anything on the island extremely easy. Staying here was a good decision and will be an easier one in the future. We look forward to a future visit.

We’ve been to Cayman Brac more than a dozen times and stayed in various beach front homes. This house is definitely on the top of our list! Beachfront of course, but also roomy, extra comfy couches and beds, a huge master shower, and a very spacious covered back porch. It is also the most well-stocked house we have ever stayed in anywhere. The kitchen, the laundry, and the bathrooms were so well stocked it truly felt like home. If we needed it, it was already there. Owner was very easy to reach and provided lots of useful home and island info. We will definitely be back to Brac Beach House!

My husband and I enjoyed our week stay at the Brac Beach House in November. The house is well appointed, spacious, and the view of the sea from all rooms is incredible. Rosanna (host) provided detailed information regarding all aspects of the house and the island including restaurants, dive and snorkelling sites, grocery stores, caves, and more. We do not dive but if you do this island is definitely the place for you. Exploring different sites along the north and south roads was part of our daily routine. The island is small and quiet which made our vacation very relaxing. The Brac Beach House is simply outstanding!

If you like the pics ….
If you liked the pictures you will love the house. Unlike some houses online, this home is every bit as beautiful as the posted pictures. We visited the island for a month. Most people go to the Brac for the fantastic dives. We however, are many, many decades old and just wanted to relax, enjoy the island, and perhaps eat some different foods. Many evenings we just savored the gorgeous sunsets from the porch, with a drink in hand. The yard leads right to the crystal clear waters of the Caribbean with cute little curly tailed lizards scampering everywhere. You will probably see an iguana and maybe a few parrots if you go to the reserve. If you are looking for a big night life scene, this probably isn’t the place for you. However, whether a swimmer, snorkeler, fisher, diver … or just enjoy nature, this might be a nice match. There are a plethora of caves to explore and some little museums from a local artist’s interesting flashback to the sixties, to a small history museum. There is no signage, but it has some relics from the past and stories related to the great hurricane of 1932. There are a surprising number of restaurants available from an upscale “farm to table” one to basically island diners. Aside from the usual island fare, everything from horse hoof to pig’s tail with beans could be found on the menu. Chicken feet were also available. By the time we left I was hooked on the local bakery’s, “only on Tuesdays”, cinnamon rolls. We missed a big turtle release, but did take in the crab races. The house itself furnished us a beautiful home base with all the necessities from a washer dryer to good wifi service. There are 2 master suites and a fully equipped, modern kitchen. A 54 ft. porch overlooking the Caribbean across the front of the house. I spent many hours there in the hammock or chaise lounges, with book in hand, watching the waves roll to shore. There is a nice platform to swim or snorkel from behind the house, but you will need shoes or diving boots due to coral, rocks and sea urchins. The owners could not be more accommodating and kept us posted on island events the whole time we were there. The location is nice, mid island, between the west end shopping and east end light house. Food is barged in once a week, usually Wednesdays, so if you are staying a while you might want to take that into consideration. All and all if you want to slow down, enjoy the place with nary a neighbor in sight, this may be the place for you.

Brac Beach House April 18 - 25 2022
We just returned from a wonderful 8 day stay at the Brac Beach House. The house was absolutely magnificent and is even better than pictured. The house comes completely equipped with all your cooking needs, and has wonderfully comfortable beds and indoor and outdoor furniture. The host was on top of everything, even the current weather conditions. One beautiful but windy day we got a text message from Rosanna as to the best place to snorkel on a North East wind, she was spot on and we had a great afternoon snorkeling Hand Cut Reef. When the winds are down, there is a great shore dive right in of the House, I will send some picture took on Frigate Reef that I hope can be attached to this recommendation. This was my 4th time renting a seas side house on the Brac and I highly recommend the Brac Beach House!

Azures and Aquas and Blues -- Oh, My!!
We had no idea what to expect of Cayman Brac, we just knew that Grand Cayman had been a favorite place of someone close to us. We wanted lots of sun, warmth, aqua marine warm water, outstanding views, comfortable outdoor furniture, and a pleasant house. We got all of that at Brac Beach House. Rosanna (and Larry) were outstanding hosts who were inn touch with us directly about a myriad of things we might need or want to know. We also knew we could be in touch with the property manager, though we never had a need to be. I can confirm that the porch is "the best one on the island" with comfortable chaise loungers, hammocks , and two lovely tables (large and small) looking out on the wide open Caribbean Sea just feet from the porch. The house was very nicely furnished with all the comfort and utility guests can need or want, and the wifi is strong. Cayman Brac as an island is very remote and we rarely saw another person unless we chose to. Neighboring houses are hidden by beautiful hedges. Though the shore is really quite inhospitable for swimming because of it's sharp uneven rocks at the entry and on into the water and its very abundant sea urchin life, it is, as a result, a wonderful place for snorkeling once you've managed to get out in the water 20-30 feet, you can float on out and start your adventure of seeing all the variety of life just under the water and in amongst the rocks. And happily Rosanna and Larry had a bin of hefty dive boots and a couple of snorkels that saved the day. One downside was that the beach was not good to walk on (sharp rocks etc), so just going out for a walk meant always on a street or road or getting in the car to find an official trail or footpath. So all-in-all a wonderful and quiet respite if you appreciate a lot of quiet and beautiful shades of blue.

A "DREAM PROPERTY" ... and Rosanna goes above & beyond to ensure your stay is perfect!
How we LOVED our 5 week stay in this super-clean, well-stocked home! The 3 sets of large patio doors brought the outside in. We were hypnotized watching the beautiful sunrises, sunsets, and the sounds of the ocean waves. Rosanna kept us abreast of the COVID rule changes, monitored our flights, had the caretaker of the property stock the house with groceries that we had pre-ordered ahead of our arrival time, and then escorted us to the VRBO to ensure we knew how to work everything. Rosanna is well connected to many fabulous people on Cayman Brac; from the local bakery, to restaurants, and the local fishermen for fresh lobster and other fish. She was so fun and easy to communicate with - and truly the gold standard in customer service!!! The Cayman Brac people are congenial and take great pride in their homes and professions. It was a walk back in time - with no traffic lights, beautiful scenery, and friendly locals who can't do enough for you. We will definitely be back ... and can't wait to experience this great home and relaxing island life, again!

A Hidden Jewel
We were looking for a quiet get away and the Brac house was all of that and more. Beautiful home with amazing panorama views of the ocean. Lots of divers enjoying the sea a fun island to explore. Thanks Rosana for everything!

Christmas on The Brac
A setting to relax and have unhurried family time. The island was beautifully decorated for the holidays. Access to groceries was easy. Barracudas restaurant/bar was our favorite local eatery. If you are looking for quiet and slow this is definitely the place to come. We did not SCUBA, but we did snorkel everyday. There is very little life in the reefs close to shore. The waters were choppy there on the north side of the island. We did find some calmer waters on the south side.

Beautiful ocean front serenity with all the amenities like you are at home. Deluxe scuba diving away from real world turmoil. Loved every minute we were there. Thank you for a stress free stay!
