The Cayman Islands has banned smoking inside all public places, including bars, restaurants, stores and bus terminals.
Smokers are allowed to light up only in open spaces that are 10 feet away from nonsmoking areas.
The law went into effect Thursday.
Other Caribbean countries such as the Dominican Republic and Grenada already have smoking bans, while legislators in Trinidad have approved such a proposal and are waiting for the prime minister to sign it.
Smoking is allowed everywhere in Jamaica, while it is banned inside government buildings in the Bahamas.
