No ones fears are ever unwarranted! Yes it may in your mind and the minds of others diving in the Cayman's may be easy and relaxing but you are missing the overall point here. No ones fears should ever be cast aside and since the OP expressed her concern about encountering sharks and rays as well as diving to depths where she may not feel safe or comfortable it really has little to do with how easy the diving in the Cayman's may be. Since there is a high probability of encountering sharks or finding yourself on a dive (or being pressured into a dive) that exceeds a depth in which she feels comfortable with her concern and ultimate decision to not go are quite understandable.
My wife had several irrational fears regarding diving. Intellect was not able to easily overcome these fears, but experience and expertise was.
