Whether you’re newly married, celebrating an anniversary, or just looking for a romantic getaway, Grand Cayman is a fabulous destination for lovers. Not only is the island full of exotic scenery and charm, but it also holds many hidden gems that can help unlock the romance in your relationship. Since Grand Cayman is mostly dedicated to tourist attractions, we’ve compiled a list of the top five romantic escapes you can add to your itinerary on the island.
1. Romantic Dinner at the Grand Old House
Grand Cayman is full of incredible restaurants overlooking the ocean, but none are quite as fancy or as memorable as the Grand Old House. Located on the southwestern tip of the island, this vintage waterfront restaurant has been around since 1908, making it a historic and iconic piece of real estate. Best of all, the menu is just as decadent as the view, with options like lamb, braised goat, crab cakes, and king salmon. It’s hard to know what you’ll fall in love with more: the cuisine or your partner.
2. Watching the Sunset on Seven Mile Beach
Sunsets are a naturally romantic time of the day, and there’s no better place to watch them on Grand Cayman than at Seven Mile Beach. Because the beach is westward-facing, you can sit on the sand and marvel at the colors in the sky. Then, once the sun dips below the horizon, you can dip your toes into the water or find a secluded spot to gaze into each other's eyes.
3. Getting Some Alone Time at Barefoot Beach
One of the great things about Grand Cayman is that all of its beaches are relatively uncrowded, so you don’t have to find other tourists to find a spot on the sand. However, beaches on the west side, especially Seven Mile Beach, get most of the attention, making it harder to have a romantic getaway. Fortunately, as you head to the eastern side of the island, the beaches become even less crowded and more scenic, and none are quite as beautiful or romantic as Barefoot Beach.
4. Taking a Photo at Lover’s Wall
Sometimes, the best way to show your love is to share it with the world, and what better way to do that than by posting photos on social media? Sure, scenic imagery of the island and its white sands will do, but why not add some romance to the occasion with a photo at Lover’s Wall? This spot is popular with couples, and it’s sure to make everyone back home green with envy.
5. Snuggling Together at South Bay Beach Club
After a full day of romantic adventures, there’s nothing better than relaxing at your resort, snuggled in each other’s arms. South Bay Beach Club is the perfect option for your getaway, thanks to its proximity to Seven Mile Beach (it’s just out front) and gorgeous sunset views. Book your dream romance package today!
