Dive Sites:-

| Promoted by cruise ship TV commercials, dive and adventure magazines, Stingray City has become the world's most famous shallow dive. Here, divers can feed, pet and play with the friendly Southern Stingrays. Divers kneel on the sandy sea floor while tame stingrays swirl around in search of food. As you stroke the smooth undersides of the stingrays, you'll understand why this memorable dive has made Grand Cayman famous. |
The North Wall boasts spectacular drops-offs and fascinating marine life. It is not uncommon to spot Eagle Rays, Tarpon and Sea Turtles. The exotic marine life clinging to the vertical sides of the wall make diving it a thrill to even the most experienced divers and photographers. North Wall dive boats depart from the Hyatt or Safehaven docks.
|
| White Stroke Canyon is a coral wall that almost defies description. The immense formation literally dwarfs the diver and vividly portrays the grandeur of the North Wall drop-offs. Two giant coral ramparts jut outward from the vertical wall. With a gaping chasm of clear blue water in between, it is about 150 feet from one rampart to the other, and the rim of the wall curves sharply inward forming a u-shaped indentation. |
Brinkley's Wall is a spectacular drop-off close to shore and quite vertical. The top of the wall begins at 35 feet and drops straight away. Underwater visibility in this area can exceed 160'. This site is loaded with tube, brown elephant ear and vase sponges. It's a great spot to find and photograph Cayman's famous blood red sponges. Inshore from the drop-off is a shallow strand of staghorn coral where yellow and gold seahorses are sometimes found.
|
| Eagle Ray Pass is a deep chasm leading to the wall. It's an awesome formation with towering coral heads, coral archways and narrow crevices- filled with magnificent sponges, gorgonian fans and black coral. This magical spot is also a regular gathering place for Spotted Eagle Rays that cruise along the face of the wall. Divers frequently encounter groups of two to six rays in a single formation. |
| Tarpon Alley is where more than 100 giant Tarpon school together in a narrow coral canyon near the edge of the drop-off. Divers can swim through the canyon, almost touching the Tarpon that are slowly cruising back and forth. Most of these silvery fish measure three to four feet long, but there are some giants that reach five feet, and weigh approximately 150 pounds. |
| This is a comfortable shallow dive, with the mooring in 30ft of water and the ledge dropping off at 50-55ft. Along the ledge to the west is a swim through if you choose. There are crevices for lobster, grouper, eel and all sorts of critters. |
| A shallow 65 ft maximum dive, this site is full of Nassau grouper and several species of jacks. At the reef crest there are numerous caves, tunnels and coral blocks. Large formations of elkhorn coral stand in amongst sea fans and plumes. |
| This deep dive of up to 100 ft, can be affected by inclement weather but is worth the effort. With many swim-throughs in the fissures and caves, these will lead the diver into semi-darkness and out into the beautiful blue wall. An abundant supply of brain coral, black coral fans and deep-water gorgonian fans just add to this impressive site. |
