Ironshore beach
 
Can anyone tell me what an ironshore beach means? We are planning a trip to Cayman Brac and I hear reference to this term but don't know what it means!

Hmm, sounds like marketing spin to me :)

Ironshore is the type of rock that forms along the coastline in some Caribbean islands (notably Cayman).

If they say "ironshore beach" they probably mean they don't have a sandy beach, so you will be oceanfront, but not beachfront.
