Batabano! The first weekend in May, Grand Cayman hosts the annual Batabano festival, or carnival. This is where "bands" sign up and deck out their following in feathers, sequins, glitter and rum, and everyone dances down 7-Mile Beach into Georgetown with Soca music playing from all directions. It is a fantastic event to participate in, or to watch on the sidelines. So much energy, dancing and amazing costumes!
There were some pretty amazing and fun moves people pulled as the masses grooved down 7-Mile. From "wining down", a popular way to dance to Soca, to a Side Crow and other yoga moves, it is a great parade to go and watch on Saturday morning if you are staying at Silver Sands.
There were all kinds of shenanigans through out the parade and even the police officers got into the festivities!
Lots of Cayman Pride can be seen through out the parade.
Above costumes are from Tribal.
Above and below costumes were part of the Swanky crew.
There were some awesome photos taken from last weekend. A big thank you to the photographers featured in this post:
