Comments	This was my first time at Brac Beach Resort after two visits to their sister resort on Little Cayman. The whole operation was very efficient and attentive to our needs, and of decent value. Food good, rooms great. No matter which room you get, all are a short walking distance to dining room, dive shop, dock, beach, pool, or bar. I like the way they run things here, just like Little Cayman. However the diving was a little repetitive by the end of the week. Partially due to choppy conditions that week which prevented us from getting to all the most desirable sites. Some dives were a 45 min ride over on Little Cayman, (weather permitting) which were arguably better dives than many around Brac. Although personally, the Tibbets wreck on Brac was one of my favourite and they took us to it twice at our request. The reef life and fish life are showing clear signs of damage from rising water temperatures due to global climate change. Conditions, especially the lack of bright colours, have diminished significantly since my first visit to the area 10 years ago. A lot of bleaching visible, algae growth in the warmer shallows, but lots of big groupers and plenty of small fish around the corals. I strongly suggest visiting Brac and/or Little Cayman soon before its too late. Either island is highly recommended for a Caribbean destination and this resort is a good choice on Brac. The Dive Masters were very good, and made our boat rides and dives interesting, safe and fun. Thanks Ragnar, Sierra & Barbie! This was a group trip booked with Innerspace Divers Supply in Pickering, ON through Squba Holidays. Everything went very smoothly.
