The Cayman Islands is home to world-class diving, luxury resorts, popular beaches, and stunning ocean vistas. This tropical environment is also home to mosquitoes, sand flies, and other biting insects. Mosquito-borne illnesses – including zika, dengue fever, and chikungunya virus – have been reported in the region.1 The Cayman Islands Travel Guide notes that while the Cayman Islands has an aggressive program for combating mosquitoes, visitors are encouraged to protect themselves with some form of insect protection, particularly during the rainy season from May through November.2 With the proper preparation, insect protection is highly manageable. But does that preparation require wasting valuable luggage space or worrying about airport liquid restrictions by packing insect repellent? Absolutely not! Travelers can plan ahead by purchasing IMPEDE repellent directly on the islands.
IMPEDE is a convenient, locally available solution designed to support your travel lifestyle. It is available throughout the Cayman Islands – found in local pharmacies and retail locations, with availability in hotel lobbies anticipated in the near future. For easy access, travelers can visit the IMPEDE Global website store locator to find a list of trusted sales partners nearby. This eliminates the need to pack bulky or restricted liquids, allowing for a lighter, more efficient travel experience.
