The Southern Cross Club

If the hustle and bustle of Grand Cayman is too much for you, consider a trip to the Sister Islands. Located 80 miles northeast of Grand Cayman, this beautiful island is just a short flight away from the “big island” but worlds away in terms of its laid-back attitude and old-world Caribbean charm. All three of the Cayman Islands Islands are wonderful in their own special way, and Little Cayman has a fan club that stretches across the globe. If you are considering a trip to Little Cayman, one of the nicest resorts on the island is Southern Cross Club.

Southern Cross Club was founded in 1958 when Little Cayman had just 12 residents. The current population is just over 100. If your dream vacation includes world class diving, fishing. peace and relaxation, few places in the world can compare with the charm, hospitality and comfort of the Southern Cross Club.

The casually sophisticated Southern Cross Club, Fish & Dive Resort is Little Cayman’s oldest original resort, offering a top rated, professional in-house diving and fishing operation. The Southern Cross Club has a non-traditional layout featuring 12 spacious ocean-view beachfront bungalows. Sound heavenly, doesn’t it?

Little Cayman continues to be one of the least developed, safest and easily accessible tropical islands in the Western hemisphere. The wide variety of marine life, the proximity of its dramatic warm water,  and the pristine barrier reefs make this destination extremely desirable. Diving Little Cayman’s Bloody Bay Wall is a journey into of the healthiest, most accessible reef environments in the world.

The Southern Cross Club is a haven for divers, fisherman, sunbathers, honeymooners, families, and anyone seeking relaxation and natural beauty.

The marvelous Cafe Med Paella is tenderly prepared with long grain rice, fresh vegetables, garlic, onions, artichoke hearts, tomatoes, lobster, shrimp, scallops, squid and fresh-caught fish.

Paella is named for the special two-handled pan also called the “Paella” in which it’s prepared and served. The pan is wide and shallow, and perfect for catching the flavors of this traditional Spanish meal.
