Shore Diving in the Cayman's with 14 yo

[OH2OD]

We visited Cobalt Coast in June 2010 and enjoyed the trip.
We did both boat and shore dives each day.
The boats are on a schedule, and might not be what you prefer.
The shore dives at Cobalt Coast and Lighthouse point were great.
We did not go out to the main wall, so our surface swim was not long.
Check out the Divetech website for more information.
Enjoy your trip.

Wrong. There is a ton of shore diving in Little Cayman...

Nipi is dead right. Several years ago I set out to write an on-line guide to shore diving on Little Cayman, then dropped the project. What I did is still useful, though, and can be found at Shore Diver.

I'll be there Jan 11 - Feb 16, shore diving every day, and will clear all the trails and access roads once again. I have to do it every winter when I go down to get in some serious tropical water diving.

Bruce - we were over last weekend & dived the Soto Trader & Cumber's Caves/Bus Stop. We also did what I think are Windsock Reef/Black Hole in Preston Bay accessed by the track off the runway almost opposite the windsock that was put in when the tug grounded - the far end of that track could do with some machete work, if you're in that area ... Great dive by the way - big nurse shark & 3 reef sharks.

Thanks to both you and Nipi! This is quite interesting. I've been thinking of Litle Cayman for a long time but lack of shore diving (the way it is described in books) was a major turn-off. I may reconsider now. What about shore diving at Cayman Brack?

BTW, I could never figure out why I do see the "THANKS" button under some posts, but I do not see it under other posts.

What about shore diving at Cayman Brack?

Also lots of shore diving on the Brac - see here - Cayman Brac Shore Diving. We dived the Russian wreck from shore last Sun. We stayed at the Cayman Breakers condos - Cayman Condos Online - The Cayman Breakers Vacation Rentals - Cayman Brac - www.caymancondosonline.com - & Nina is a wealth of info on shore diving.

Do they rent tanks for unlimited shore diving? There is no info on their website here, only boat trips: Cayman Dive Rates | Diving at Brac Reef Beach Resort

Do they rent tanks for unlimited shore diving?

Yes - we rented tanks & weights. Cannot confirm unlimited as we only rented one each but I would hope that they would.

OK I will call them and ask. What about a resort with a nice home reef for shore diving in Brac? Are there any?
