Tarasand

The Silver Thatch Membership offers a number of benefits and services including unlimited use of the Silver Thatch Fitness Centre, business centre, snorkel gear and discounts on restaurants, water sports, boat charters and more.

Tarasand sits on the waterfront in Cayman Kai within Rum Point along the north coast. This two-story luxury villa is a great family or couples choice and offers barefoot swimming from its palm-shaded beach. At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, Tarasand is extremely private, and the chances are high that you will not see a soul on your beach the entire stay. Lounge in the oceanfront hammock on the white-sand beach, or enjoy the sunsets from the multiple decks; luxurious interiors and great design compliment the excellent Caribbean views.

Beach Notes
The entire island is only 22 miles wide from west to east, so you are never too far from anywhere on Grand Cayman.

The homes on the sound front in Cayman Kai offer the best beaches as they don't have as much marine and plant life inhabiting the shallows. The beaches are typically soft white sand. The homes facing west offer barefoot swimming in shallow calm waters. The homes facing south (Kaibo Condos & Pools of the Kai) have great white sand beaches, but softer sea bottom. You will probably want to walk across the street to swim in sandier water.

The sunsets here are also wonderful, but the big draw to this area is the proximity to the Rum Point Club, a public beach club that offers a fantastic barefoot beach, many water sports, a restaurant bar and grill, a gift shop, and pick-up beach volleyball games. Also near Rum Point is the Kaibo Yacht Club restaurant, bar and marina.

Lastly, we have 2 large resorts in the east end (Morritt's and The Reef) that offer manicured beaches as well as restaurants, a modern grocery store, liquor store, gift shops, a Subway sandwich shop, and a cafe/pastry shop.

These two resorts also offer scuba, snorkel trips, jet skis, windsurfing, kiteboarding, ocean front pools and bar service.

General Grand Cayman Beach Notes
All beaches in Grand Cayman are technically “public” since the Queen owns up to the high watermark and the shoreline quality behind your property may vary seasonally. Be advised that the beach or water entry behind your property may vary slightly from the images on our website because of the weather. The next-door beach is also always available for your use.

Ocean Debris and Sargassum Seaweed
Beaches in Grand Cayman may also experience floating ocean debris and sargassum weed seasonally. Sargassum is a generally harmless floating seaweed that has increased in frequency in recent years. Although sargassum is an unsightly nuisance, it is largely seasonal in summer. The owners do make efforts to remove heavy sargassum and will have the beach raked prior to your arrival. We try our best to work around mother nature.
