Rum Point

Grand Cayman


Swinging in hammocks and snorkeling are the main activities at this quiet beach, although the Red Sail water-sports crew also has an outlet here. Take some time to explore the trails along the reef-protected shore and mangroves, then enjoy a beachside burger at fun-filled Wreck Bar.
