Starfish Point

A shallow bay on the north coast where many orange cushion sea stars can be seen in knee-deep, clear water.

Starfish Point is about 3 kilometres west of Rum Point. The bay is shallow and calm, and dozens of orange-red cushion sea stars are often visible on the sandy bottom. It is one of Grand Cayman's most popular spots for families to splash around, and some Stingray City boat tours stop here on the way. Please do not lift the starfish out of the water, since exposure to air can injure or even kill them. The beach facilities are simple and there are no restaurants, so bring drinking water and shade. Entry is free, and drivers can simply park by the roadside.
