If we do say so ourselves, no visit to Rum Point is complete without a visit to Rum Point Club. While we serve a delectable range of food and drinks at The Rum Deck or Solis Restaurant, we’re also a major part of Rum Point history! 

A few decades ago, it was here that the classic Mudslide cocktail was concocted. Consisting of vodka, Irish cream liqueur, coffee liqueur, and cinnamon powder, our Original Mudslide is the quintessential drink of Grand Cayman! Sip and savor the striking flavors as you watch the waves lapping the sand for a true taste of island life.Of course, our menu is more than the Mudslide. We serve a range of refreshing alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, as well as a diverse selection of dishes ranging from fresh seafood to pizzas and desserts. Take your time relishing your meal before continuing your day of leisure!

Explore Stingray City from Rum Point

Rum Point is the gateway to one of the Cayman Islands’ most iconic attractions: Stingray City. From the dock, you can hop on a short boat tour to the shallow sandbars where gentle southern stingrays glide around visitors. It’s the perfect way to experience Rum Point without getting your heart rate up or breaking a sweat!

This unique experience allows you to stand in waist-deep water as these friendly rays swim past, a bucket-list item for many visitors to the island. We offer a range of excursions here, from our One-Stop Stingray City Tour from Rum Point to our longer Grand Cayman Stingray City Tour, which includes snorkeling at a nearby reef. It’s little wonder why it’s one of our top choices for Things First-Timers Should Do in Grand Cayman!

Discover Starfish Point

Stingrays aren’t the only popular creature in Rum Point. Just a short drive away lies Starfish Point, a secluded stretch of sand where starfish rest in the shallow water. This quiet spot is perfect for wading, relaxing, and capturing photos of these beautiful sea creatures in their natural environment. Remember to observe without disturbing them — lifting starfish out of the water is harmful, so it’s best to simply admire them naturally where they are.

End the Day with a Sunset Sail

For a magical finale to your day, join a Sunset Sail from Rum Point. This relaxing catamaran cruise lets you watch the sun dip below the horizon as the water glows gold and pink. With the breeze in your hair and a drink in hand, it’s the ultimate way to toast to your relaxing day in paradise.
