Are There Lakes in the Cayman Islands?

No natural lakes exist in the Cayman Islands (Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac, Little Cayman). The islands are low-lying limestone with no surface drainage—rainwater percolates into a freshwater lens floating on saltwater.

However, there are man-made lakes/ponds:

• Blue Iguana Lake — Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park (Grand Cayman)
• Governor's Lake — George Town (Grand Cayman)
• Golf course irrigation ponds, hotel lagoons, residential water features.

Freshwater supply relies on desalination and the fragile freshwater lens—making conservation critical.
