Dive Information & Itineraries

Little Cayman Dive Overview

The 80 F (26.6C) water is second to none when it comes to clarity and it is said that more underwater photographs are taken in the Cayman Islands than in all other Caribbean dive destinations. The Caymans trademark turtles are a common sight and eagle rays, angelfish, reef sharks and grouper count among the 500 species of fish that have been documented here.

Little Cayman Dive Sites

Here are some of the dive sites in Little Cayman. Feel free to ask us if you would like to know more about these and other dive sites in the Cayman Islands.

• Barracuda Bight - This is the next to last site in Bloody Bay.Little Cayman Dive Sites We have in this area fingers or outcroppings from the wall. In the shallows, you will find Sailfin Blennys and many other juveniles and small fish. There are many crevices and overhangs to explore here. Lobster and Spider Crabs are found here, quite often along with Nurse Sharks, Green Moray and Black and White Moray Eels.
• Cascades - This is the first and most northern point in the Jackson Point area. Once youve entered the water and started down you will understand the meaning of Cascades. This is the area where it all cascades down to La La Land. You will find turtles, sharks, Eagle and Stingrays on this far out site, as well as conch. The coral heads in this area look like small mountain ranges. Makes for great wide-angle photos.
• Donna's Delight - Donnas Delight is very much like Marilyns Cut. One thing that seems to be abundant on this site are Flamingo Tongue shells. Nurse Sharks are frequently seen along these sites. You may find Flying Gurnards in the shallow areas, too. Sailfin Blennys are common, but you really need a trained eye to find them. They are only about 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 long. They dance above their burrows and fleet back into them when approached.
• Eagleray Roundup - This site is a large sandy area typical of Jackson Bay. Occasionally we find more than one or two Eagle Rays here. The area is surrounded by large coral head formations and bordered by the wall reef. You will find large Parrot Fish munching on the sand as well as Sting Rays and Hog Snapper. There are also friendly French Angels and Grouper here.
• Great Wall East & West - There is only one word you can use to describe the Great Wall West & East dive sites AWESOME! The majestic vertical wall is unbelievable and in the shallows, you will find large coral heads teeming with life. Make sure you swim away from the wall to appreciate the wall in its full glory. Black coral, large sponges in yellow and red and critters dot the wall making a great photo and if you look closely, you might see the occasional Seahorse or Lettuce-leaf Seaslug.
• Marilyn's Cut - There are some excellent swim-throughs on this site where two fairly deep canyons cut into the reef. Lots of yellow tube sponges along with red rope sponges dot the wall. The friendly resident Nassau grouper (Benji) and her friend will happily accompany you throughout your dive and even pose for a photo if you are lucky!"
