Pollard Bay
Cayman Brac · Cayman Islands
Pollard Bay is a sheltered, shallow bay on Cayman Brac's east end where a sandy seagrass flat transitions to a patch reef system, then steps down to deeper sandy channels frequented by southern stingrays and large green turtles. The site's protected position on the leeward side means it stays calm when the north coast churns, and the mix of habitats makes it one of the best macro sites on the island, with seahorses, frogfish, and flying gurnards in the rubble zones.
