First dive of the trip at the Sunset House resort reef. Pleasant resort with a decent house reef. We saw the famous Amphitrite Mermaid statue and the Atlantis Submarine full of tourists.

Our first dive on the north sound wall. Spectacular! Along the wall top are a series of deep canyons, some of them almost tunnels, that open out onto the sheer deep drop of the wall. Nice soft corals. Fish highlight was an Ocean Triggerfish.

Second dive of the day where we stick to the shallower part of the reef. We were treated to a squadron of five Eagle Rays cruising along the top of the wall...Magnificent!

Another spectacular wall, with swim-throughs that are almost tunnels. We saw one cruising Eagle Ray in the distance and lots of Fairy Basslets.

Second dive of the day and the fifth of the trip. Another shallower reef along the sheer dropoff. We saw scads of lobsters and one unconcerned turtle passing through.

The site is named for the part of the wall that actually forms an overhang. All the bubbles rising from the deep divers against the wall is quite a sight! We were accompanied by a curious turtle for a while.

Seventh dive of the trip. We saw more fish than any previous dive, almost like back on Bonaire: Yellowhead Jawfish, Nassau Groupers, a small school of Chub, an Indigo Hamlet and a very nice French Angelfish.

Site and plaque dedicated to famed Cayman freediver Penny Ventura. Spectacular black coral down deep. Fish highlights were a marauding Tang Gang and the always odd looking Cowfish.

Some of the prettiest hard and soft coral of any of our Cayman dives. Fish highlights were beautiful Yellow Phase and Bicolor Coneys, a Porcupinefish, a Shy and Barred Hamlet and a very pale blotchy Blue Tang being cleaned.

Our second dive on this wall. Very spectacular, but the camera does not do it justice. Saw a large Moray Eel out cruising and another Eagle Ray that made two passes at us.

As this was the second dive of the day, we stayed above the wall drop-off. Memorable highlights include a large moray out for a swim and a large lobster out for a walk.

A very eventful dive! It started with a gliding Peacock Flounder, then a dramatic swim through to find a large turtle and a pair of French Angelfish feeding and posing with Marcia and ended with an encounter with a feisty lobster.

A new site, recently opened and what a beauty! Gorgeous hard and soft coral formations. We saw a pair of pirouetting butterflyfish, a shy stingray, several Diamond Blennies, a turtle that buzzed the camera twice and a wounded ocean triggerfish.

This time we dive with Tech Divers on the famous Turtle Reef, adjacent to the old turtle farm. Lots of Tarpon and several Southern Stingrays combined with interesting terrain to make this a must-do Cayman dive.

First of two dives with Ocean Frontiers on the east side. Similar terrain as the north walls. Stupid fish trick: Sprinkle a bit of sand on a Sea Cucumber and watch the acrobatics start! Thanks for showing us that!

This site just opened up and it was the first time the Ocean Frontiers staff got a look. We all took our chances, but we found it disappointing: Very little hard coral (lots of soft coral), lots of algae and few fish The wreck is a wreck...scattered about the reef.
