We just got back from Grand cayman and wanted to share a new company that we found called JJ Divers..we found them through discount excursions and although you guys sound certified we did a discover or beginners scuba dive so we didnt have to be certified or anything. my wife and myself are not certified and it only cost $75 all the scuba gear included and we went to a great site not just on port like eden rock and it was fully guided !!! they have a web site http://www.jjivers.com ... it waqs amazing !!! we saw sting rays and turtles and so many different fish that our guild/instructor taught us about !! after the dive he brought us to a wonderful beach and hooked us up with a free drink !!!! by far the best time in grand cayman we have ever had ! we are already planning on going back to get certified! they only charge $250 when all the others charge $500
My wife even left a review on trip advisor... ill copy and paste it for you. they did have other divers that were certified and they were having a great time! talking about killing and eating lion fish. They provided us with free pick up and drop off, sun screen , leave in hair conditioner for my wife, they even had free wifi. I know that they do give discounts for groups and packages. drop them an email and let them know sonny and sandy sent you guys, i promise you wont be disappointed!
I couldn't have asked for a better experience for knocking scuba diving off my bucket list! It's been a dream of mine for many years and something I was saving for the perfect place (and great company, of course). I am frightened by large bodies of water and its' occupants, so needless to say, I was very nervous about "heading out to sea" and being able to breathe normally (lol). However, Jacob took my hesitations to heart and took his time in the pool with us, coaching and reassuring us every step of the way. Without his help, I would have never been truly ready to go and explore the underwater treasures Grand Cayman diving has in store (and he surely knows his way around!) The dive was totally customized to our lack of experience but desire to see really cool things. I actually felt so comfortable and so relaxed under the surface that I wanted to go right back down once the dive was over. JJ practically takes you in as family, and the stories alone are worth the acquaintance. This dive was definitely the highlight of my trip (beating out jet-skiing, para-sailing, snorkeling, swimming with the dolphins ). I hope to go back and dive with JJ sometime soon and will be telling everyone about them!! we are already planning on going back and spending a week in cayman and we will be with JJ and his awesome crew everyday !!! "VI VA LA SALSA !!" lol (inside joke)

As I have said on other threads, we have found DiveTech to be consistently great in terms of variety and safety, and they pick up from most of SMB. Not sure where your condo is - if it's on the East End then that won't work for you...
Seasports picks you up on the beach at 9 so you can sleep in a little if that's what your looking for. Indepth has a great boat and focus more on the north wall. On the other hand. I think cayman has mostly great operators. Never heard of jj before though.

Try Jason at Ambassador Divers. In addition to being often recommended here - they're based out of Comfort Suites - about 1/2 mile south of Lacovia. They'll pick you up also. And dive with 2-8 divers max. Cayman Islands Scuba Diving | Grand Cayman Dive Packages | Ambassador Divers
My other recommendation would be Neptune's Divers. http://www.neptunesdivers.com/

We will be on Grand Cayman June 10-17. We are diving with Divetech. Come dive with my wife and I @ Divetech. You also dont have to dive only one op. Try a few different ops. Then you will see more and know who you like next time. You will have plenty of fun with different ops!
Later Mon,
Nick
