Soft sand between your toes, turquoise waters lapping gently against the shore, the setting sun bathing the scene in gold — could there be anything more romantic than Grand Cayman? This island is a true paradise, offering abundant natural beauty and a hypnotic charm.
At Rum Point Club, we get to soak up this scenery every day at The Rum Deck and Solis Restaurant, where couples often come for relaxing sundowners or a delectable meal. Whether you’re celebrating your honeymoon, an anniversary, or simply taking time away together, we’ve created this guide to the most romantic spots in Grand Cayman. Keep reading for our local suggestions, or get in touch with us to reserve your romantic dinner!
Seven Mile Beach
Frequently ranked as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Seven Mile provides the ultimate combination of ocean swims, leisurely strolls, and beachside dining. And with its location on the western side of the island, you’ll experience some of the best sunsets in the Caribbean, bathing the sky in orange, pink, and purple hues.
There are also plenty of opportunities for adventure here, with snorkeling, scuba diving, and sailing all on the cards. Our sister company, Red Sail Sports, is the premier provider of watersports on the island and has locations all along Seven Mile Beach. Join their Seven Mile Beach Snorkeling Excursions or go deeper with their Grand Cayman Dives, exploring the magical underwater world with your loved one.
Rum Point and the North Side
If you’d prefer a quieter alternative to the buzzing Seven Mile Beach, Rum Point exudes a laid-back charm. Tucked along Grand Cayman’s North Side, this corner of the island is ideal for couples seeking tranquility without going too far off the beaten track. And at Rum Point Club, you’ll find everything you need to spend a romantic day here, from lounge chairs to beach toys and, of course, our delectable cuisine.
The North Side is ripe for exploration, with two of Grand Cayman’s top attractions located here: Starfish Point and Stingray City. Starfish Point is a secluded beach where bright red starfish rest in the shallows, creating a beautiful spectacle. You can wade into the water and admire the starfish up close, just make sure not to move them.
Stingray City is one of Grand Cayman’s most iconic destinations — a unique location in the North Sound where you can swim with the friendly stingrays! You can even pucker up and give one a kiss for seven years of good luck. Who knew stingrays could be so romantic? Thanks to Rum Point’s close proximity to Stingray City, we offer a number of Grand Cayman Boat Tours at Rum Point Club here!
When you’ve finished your adventures at sea, a refreshing drink will be waiting for you at The Rum Deck. We have a wide range of cocktails, including our famous Mudslide, which was created right here in the 1980s! Sit back, relax, and savor your drink as you watch the sun set. Then, join us at Solis and dine on our mouthwatering dishes, ranging from our catch of the day to our burrata and prawn pizza. Check out our guide to The Rum Point Club Menu: Signature Dishes You’ll Love to whet your appetite!
If you’re looking to take things up a notch, our Sunset Sail from Rum Point is an unforgettable experience. As the catamaran drifts across the calm waters, you can sip chilled wine, watch the sun melt into the horizon, and feel the world slow down for a blissful moment in time.
Cayman Crystal Caves
Grand Cayman’s beauty doesn’t only lie with its beaches. Hidden beneath a lush tropical forest on the North Side, there’s an entire world of stalactites and stalagmites. Exploring the Cayman Crystal Caves will take you on a journey through millions of years of geologic and human history, from the formation of these rocks to the use of these chambers by pirates. Walking hand in hand through the echoing caves is a mysterious, beautiful, and entirely unique experience in Grand Cayman.
Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park
If you’d rather stay above ground, the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park offers a verdant haven filled with native flora, orchids, and colorful butterflies. Couples can wander through shaded paths, rest on quiet benches surrounded by tropical blooms, and perhaps catch a glimpse of the rare blue iguana, which is endemic to Grand Cayman. It’s the perfect place to bring a picnic, slow down, and enjoy each other’s company.
Bioluminescent Bay
Few things feel more magical than paddling across a bay that glows in the dark. On Grand Cayman’s North Side, near Cayman Kai, the bioluminescent bay comes alive at night when microscopic organisms light up the water in soft blue sparks. Join a guided kayak and watch as every paddle stroke leaves a trail of shimmering light behind you. It’s a rare and breathtaking experience, and one that’s even more special when shared!
