31 Casuarina Tree at Rum Point in North Side, Grand Cayman

The casuarina is a tree frequently seen hugging Grand Cayman’s seashores. Resembling a pine tree, it typically drapes over the water like a weeping willow. This Australian native was introduced to Jamaica around 1788 and to Grand Cayman during the 1800s. Also called the ironwood or beefwood, it thrives in tropical climates and is commonly planted as an effective windbreak.
