Starfish & More at Starfish Point

Grand Cayman Travelog #21
Starfish Point - Fri, 19 May 2023, 11am

Today we're taking a drive around the far side of the island of Grand Cayman. Our first stop this morning, Rum Point, was kind of a bust. Just down the road from that is Starfish Point. Although we visited Starfish Point on Tuesday as part of a boat tour it seemed like a fun place to come back to on our own— without the crowds from the boats.



We had the beach mostly to ourselves for a while. It's beautiful in an unspoiled way. Soon the first tour boat arrived, though. With only about 20 people aboard it wasn't so bad.

While Hawk went looking for coral and shells near the shore I waded out into the clear, shallow water to look for starfish. Sure enough, I found them— and other fish, too. Here's a video montage I put together:

In the video are a few starfish, a tarpon, a jellyfish, and a sea cucumber.

I love this video

What fun! I enjoyed seeing your starfish, jellyfish, and sea cucumber video. For a moment that large fish made me think you were in danger. Thank goodness it was a harmless fish who even got spooked. I'm not much of a beach goer, but I think Grand Cayman could change my mind.
