Starfish Cay
Aqua adventures abound in the fun and inviting new Starfish Cay, where cool blasts of water surprise and delight. From a zero-entry splash pool, shallow enough for families to splash, play and explore, children enter a magical cove with interactive water nozzles, and then sail down gentle water slides. Above, a bright bucket is filled with water that becomes a refreshing waterfall.
Summer Watersports
From swimming pool to white sand beach, and from snorkeling to diving in the crystal clear Caribbean, The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman offers countless ways to explore its shimmering water world. The resort's summer watersports offer all this and more, including a best-selling Mangrove Kayak Adventure, shipwreck explorations, seafloor submarine adventures, and relaxing beach, pool and dining experiences in luxurious private cabanas.
Ambassadors of the Environment / Ritz Kids
Jean-Michel Cousteau's Ambassadors of the Environment presents excursions for adults, families and children (four and older), led by expert naturalists and introducing resort guests to the natural wonders and rich cultural traditions of the Cayman Islands. Throughout these unique Caribbean eco-tours, the islands' ecological resources become a natural classroom and living laboratory in which participants learn, while having fun at the same time. Several dozen offerings include Stingray Detective, Frogtastic Fun and Snorkeling 101 for young children, Underwater Photography Snorkel, Mangrove Kayak and Night Snorkel for youth and adults, and for families, Have You Ever Seen a Blue Iguana? and Atlantis Submarine.

Summer Spa
Summer indulgences at the luxury resort's la prairie spa include the tropically-inspired Island Dream Body Treatment, incorporating mango/papaya, coconut or chocolate/vanilla/coffee to exfoliate, soothe and stimulate the senses. For a special state-of-the-art experience, the la prairie Cellular Swiss Ice Crystal Facial uses Swiss extremeophile plants and algae to help fortify skin against the accelerated pace of aging.
Finally, and adding to its special vacation-time appeal, The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman is inviting its summer guests to populate their social media feeds with favorite photos of themselves enjoying the luxury resort, and hash-tagging their posts with #RCMemories.
