trip report, little cayman, little cayman beach resort.
i never do this.
i never go to the same place twice in a row.

several days ago i returned home from lc while staying at lcbr.
the core group of advanced divers from tampa fl with some mystery guests fom here to there met again to dive, eat, sleep and do all over again from a land based resort.

captain ron and dm sharon ran the show.
we shared a boat with a group fromm pitt pa.

first the diving.
you did not see several of one kind of fish.
you saw hundreds in a school, darting this way and that.
blue, yellow, pink, and purple clouds of fish.

the food chain was in full action.
this was all wall diving, three tanks for 9 days.
go down over the wall to about 50-65 ft.
put the current on your nose and go for about 20 mins.
we dive thirds.

with your shoulder about 15ft off the wall you see the little ones close in and among the coral.
a little further off the wall you see the angels,trigger, black durgen and baracuda.
out in the blue you see your reef sharks, eagle rays and turtles.

then we go up to the top of the wall at about 30ft with about 2000psi back toward the boat.
here we see all the soft coral bending back and forth with the slow current and surge.
trumpets,blue tangs,honey comb cowfish and parrot dart around trying to hide.

above the water at lcbr everything was as perfect.
claudia, robert and clayton were in charge when you went for a meal.
they made sure eveything was right.
unseen in the galley two chefs tried to keep up with all their secret dishes.

the bar was in the good hands with theresa and christine.
they remember your name, drink and room number.
how do they do that?

vickie and jason took care of the front lobby being resort managers.
the guest's questions and desires were always done with a smile.

i've already booked a spot for june 2012.
broke another rule.
 
That Island will spoil you!
 
Yes Little Cayman and Little Cayman Beach Resort will spoil you to the point you just can't stay away!
 
Great report Smokey. It was a pleasure meeting you and others at LCBR. It will definitely be a hard act to follow.
My next trip is to the Mayan Riviera in April 2012 where I know the diving will be disappointing in comparison.
I'm already looking for the next opportunity to return to LCBR.
