Babymoon in Grand Caymen in Feb

My wife and I will be staying at the Grand Cayman Beach suites from Feb 2nd -6th. At that time she will be 4 months pregnant with our first child. So we are looking to have a relaxing vacation before the baby, and will probably spend a lot of time lying around by the pool and on the beach. What are the top 2-3 things/attractions that we should make a point to see or do on the island? Also, could you please give us some restaurant recommendations?

Thank you in advance for your help!

you might want to rent a car for a day. you could drive to the botanical gardens (which will take a couple hours to see) then head out to rum point. rum point has some snorkeling, a good beach grill & is generally a fun place to hang our except on sunday (businesses closed - locals go to relax & likely get away from tourists). on the way home drive around the east end of the island past the reef & morritts resorts. you'll go by the viewing areas for the 'wreck of the seven sails' & 'the blow hole' and get a chance to see the more quiet side of the island. this whole trip is easily doable in one day.
string ray city is a must!
i would skip the turtle farm unless you've never seen one in the sea.
there is a wonderful artist named guy harvey who has a shop & gallery in georgetown. the shop has nice things, mr harvey may be there working. next door is his wonderful restaurant - we had an excellent meal on their deck. http://guyharveysgrill.com/
we also enjoyed our dinner at the 'rum point restaurant', however we stayed near by - it would be a bit of a drive for you to get home - approx 45 mins. http://www.caymangoodtaste.com/resta..._headingID=272
if you're into ecclectic dining you could try 'rolands'. he prepares what ever he feels like each night. used to be byob but that may have changed. http://www.rolandsgarden.com/dinner/?Name=Value
