You’ll drift across crystal blue water in your own shaded cabana float, sipping cold drinks with music playing as pelicans glide by. A local guide helps you settle in and captures your day from above with a 4K drone video. It’s relaxed and easy — just sunlight, laughter, and that feeling of being somewhere you’ll remember long after you leave.
We stepped out from the little dock near Seven Mile Beach, shoes in hand, and there it was — this bright cabana just bobbing on the water. The air smelled like sunscreen and salt. Our guide, Marcus, grinned and handed us cold bottled water before helping us climb up (I definitely wobbled — he said everyone does). The roof gave enough shade that I didn’t fry, but you could still feel the heat on your arms if you leaned out. There’s something about being out there — away from shore but not too far — that made me feel lighter somehow.
The ocean was so clear you could see your toes dangling below. We cranked up some soca on the Bluetooth speaker (my playlist, sorry to everyone else) and just floated. Marcus laughed when I tried to pronounce “cassava cake” in his accent — pretty sure I butchered it. Every so often a breeze would lift the edge of the cabana roof and you’d get this flash of coolness. I kept thinking how weirdly peaceful it was, even with music and chatter. At one point a pelican swooped by so close we all ducked instinctively.
After a while, Marcus sent up his drone — he showed us how it worked and then just let it hover above us while we waved like idiots. The idea that we’d get a 4K video of our goofy floating selves still makes me laugh. It’s not fancy or anything; just real moments out on the water, which is honestly what I wanted anyway. If you’re looking for an ocean cabana float in the Cayman Islands that doesn’t feel staged or rushed… well, this is probably it.
