What Makes Cayman’s Reefs Special?
Grand Cayman is home to some of the Caribbean’s healthiest and most colorful coral reefs. These shallow, protected waters are known for:
- Crystal-clear visibility (often 80–100+ feet)
- Diverse coral species—brain, staghorn, elkhorn, and sea fans
- Abundant tropical fish, including angelfish, parrotfish, groupers, and butterflyfish
- Occasional sightings of sea turtles, eagle rays, and moray eels
Popular reef spots visited on Starliner tours include:
- Coral Gardens – beginner-friendly with shallow reef zones
- The Barrier Reef – deeper and more dramatic coral walls
- Secret local reefs – known only to experienced Caymanian guides like Captain David
