What ๐ฐ๐พ means
A Blue Ensign with a coat of arms showing a turtle, a pineapple, a lion and three green stars: the flag of the Cayman Islands, a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean.
Divers and beachgoers post ๐ฐ๐พ from Seven Mile Beach and Stingray City. Finance jokes use it too, since the islands are an offshore banking hub.
The three stars stand for Grand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Little Cayman.
