Cayman celebrated Mardi Gras in style on Wednesday at two different locations with plenty of brightly-coloured beads, and enough booze for everyone to get into the party spirit.

With loud music and lots of sexy dancing – onstage at least (the rest of the crowd seemed a little more conservative) – to attract them, the George Town Waterfront opposite Margaritaville was filled with thousands of revellers from six cruise ships, all getting a great taste of local culture.

At the other location, The Kaibo Restaurant, unlike the George Town party, was enclosed in a metal fence and was strictly for those willing to buy tickets.

With a bus to take partygoers the last stretch of the road between Rum Point and the Kaibo beach and back again, a very-well organised Mardi Gras party was the order of the day at the Kaibo Restaurant in North Side.

It was 12 hours of non-stop partying beginning at mid-day, with some great dance sounds and best DJs, plenty of colour and plenty of fun all round. People loved jumping to catch beads being thrown from the balcony. With a slightly Alice in Wonderland flavour, there was a mad hatter there attracting the attention of cameras – and ladies too.
