I just returned from the Caymans. I was a bit disappointed from a photographer's perspective. I took out my macro lens but didn't really find a lot that motivated me to shoot. I thought that I would see more during the night, but it was at least as disappointing as during the day. Perhaps I am spoiled from diving in other areas.
However, I do believe that the Cayman Islands are "target rich" for the wide-angle lens.
The Cayman Islands are great for diving, but I would hesitate to say that it is a photographer's paradise.
Have you considered Cozumel? Granted the drift diving makes photography a challenge, but there is a lot to do besides diving (e.g., visit Mayan archeological sites) and it is cheap. The night diving is spectacular in Coz.
Would like to know where and what dive operator you were diving with...
I hestitate to mention the dive operator because they were very good.
I will say that we did about 15 dives off Little Cayman and one dive on the Tibbitts.
Sorry, but I still like Cozumel better. I have yet to see night dives as exciting as they are in Cozumel.
