Killer Pillar

Only 1 of the very few sites in all of the Cayman islands to find this rarely seen pillar coral growing. Other marine life to be seen include grunts, snappers, parrot fish, and octopuses too!

Marine life at this site

20 feet away from the mooring line in a north easterly direction you’ll find some pillar coral on the edge of the mini wall.

Based on open species observationswithin ~5 km — likely to see, not necessarily confirmed at the site itself.
