Due to the forecasted weather deterioration as Tropical Storm Eta passes west of the Cayman Islands tomorrow, November 7, 2020, the Port of George Town, Grand Cayman and the Port of Creek, Cayman Brac will be closed to vessel berthing at its facilities from today until further notice. The Berkley Bush Cargo Distribution Center on Portland Road and the Billing Office, will be open as normal today, but will not open tomorrow, so we encourage all importers who have goods cleared and ready to collect to do so today if possible.
