The Cayman Islands Tourism Attraction Board (TAB) unveiled its new look website recently and it does offer some lovely pictures of Cayman Island attractions that come under the Board’s umbrella.

These are:

Pedro St. James

The Botanic Park

Pirates Week

Cayman Craft Market

Hell Attraction

The Mission Statement on the website (http://www.tab.ky) says TAB is there “to enhance and diversify Cayman’s tourism product by offering high quality tourist attractions that display Cayman’s culture, history, flora and fauna; by providing leadership and skilled management that effectively administers allocated resources for the efficient development and preservation of its attractions.”

TAB was created in 1996 under the Tourism Attraction Board Law, to develop and manage the Pedro St. James Castle historic site. In 1997, the Board’s mandate was expanded to include the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park. The other attractions and the Pirates Week Festival were subsequently added to the Board’s responsibility.

My one criticism of the website is its Press Room. Only two releases? One on April 11, 2012 – “Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park Marks Earth Day 2012;

and the other on Jan. 12, 2011 – Cayman Craft Market Vendors Get New Code of Conduct.

Come on TAB, you need to do a lot better with your releases than that.
