History

A Tribute to Anne Bonny and Beyond

The spirit of Bonny Moon as a place where adventure, relaxation, and freedom coexist harmoniously. By weaving elements from Anne Bonny's legacy, the moon's cycles, and a contemporary take on 70's retro design, as well as drawing inspiration from the artistry of Joan Miró, we have created a concept that is unique, engaging, and perfectly tailored to the beach club's identity.

Bonny Moon combines Anne Bonny's pirate legacy and the allure of the moon, symbolizing adventure and tranquility in one. It is a name that evokes intrigue.

Cayman's Night sky

Bonny Moon's Unique Perspective

At Bonny Moon, we are lucky to be blessed with a unique vantage point. Among the treasures visible from our location are constellations like Crux, Carina, and Centaurus, along with celestial wonders such as the Carina Nebula and the Jewel Box cluster—spectacles unseen from the vantage points of North America or Europe.

What sets Cayman apart in the Caribbean is its minimal light pollution, offering unparalleled opportunities for stargazing enthusiasts to behold constellations from both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Unlike the European and North American experience, where celestial bodies often hover near the horizon, here in the Caribbean, the moon and planets traverse directly overhead. This positioning grants an optimal view of the sky's zenith, characterized by its thin atmosphere, enhancing the brilliance and clarity of celestial objects.

Sustainability at Bonny Moon

With a down-to-earth and bohemian vibe, Bonny Moon is a space where we feel connected to the night and each other.

Central to Bonny Moon's ~ф'philosophy is sustainability and honoring the environment, so guests are encouraged to bring their own cups and vessels when they order from the beach café and bar.
