For those of you who dove Grand Cayman in Oct, what can I expect for weather? Hurricane season? Rainy season? Temps? I did a search but didn't come up with anything too enlightening. Would appreciate your experience... Thanks! dd

My own experience is that October is generally miserable. It is so bad, in fact, that Pirate's Point (on Little Cayman) shuts down for the whole month. From 1998 through 2005, I came down here every October and stayed through late spring. October was almost always windy and rainy. These days, I wait until January to come down. And now as I sit here on Little Cayman in February the weather is absolutely perfect. It almost always is!
Hmmm... ok. So, October is not a good month. When is the rainy season? Pls don't say Oct... This is a group trip that is planned through a dive shop. I haven't plunked down any money as yet. I'm either going in Oct or not at all. What would you do? Thanks for posting.

I just talked with Gay Morse 15 minutes ago and she says they always close in mid-August and then reopen in time for Halloween.So is PP shut down for two whole months? Because the last two years we have been to LC in September, and LCBR was the only resort open for that month. Seems strange that they would shut down for two months straight.
