Southern Cross Club LITTLE CAYMAN, CAYMAN ISLANDS
Founded in 1958, Southern Cross Club is Little Cayman’s original resort. With only 14 colourful Caribbean beach bungalows, this diving and fishing resort offers a one-to-one guest/staff ratio. Visiting guests find themselves in a serene environment that offers privacy, warm hospitality and personalised, diligent service. The smallest of the three Cayman Islands, at
10sq miles, Little Cayman entices visitors with its accessible seclusion, pockets of undeveloped beauty and the healthy diversity of its marine environment. The island was mostly uninhabited and rarely visited until the mid-19th century and continues to have limited development — 75% of Little Cayman’s shoreline is protected and maintained by the local Department of Environment, helping to keep the island’s natural beauty unspoiled. Southern Cross Club is located directly on the
South Hole Sound and guests can enjoy using the resort’s complimentary kayaks to paddle over to the uninhabited Owen Island, an 11-acre deserted isle situated only 300 meters from the resort’s shore.
Southern Cross Club offers world-class diving
and is regularly featured on lists of top destinations around the world. Little Cayman has much to offer for both beginners and experienced divers — from shallow reefs teeming with life to sheer vertical walls overgrown with corals and sponges. Three marine protected areas and an international shark sanctuary ensure prolific fish life and frequent shark sightings. With an average visibility of 80ft to 100ft and little to no current, the waters off the island offer some of the best conditions for diving, and some of the finest dive sites in the Cayman Islands. Southern Cross Club pioneered diving on Little
Cayman, discovering and naming many of the sites that are still visited by guests today. The dive department consists of a multinational team of experienced professionals. The team provides a fun diving experience while adhering to safety and environmental standards. All dive certification options (through PADI) are available to guests who wish to become qualified divers during their stay at Southern Cross Club.
