Comments [None]This is a brief report based on memory. I am focusing on the operation not what was seen on the dives.

The service level of the dive operation is high. They welcome divers with mobility issues. There was a paraplegic on the boat I was diving from. He was so impressed with how he was treated that he has never tried anywhere else. The cost of a day excursion to dive Bloody Bay Wall on Little Cayman is reasonable.

The food is good but not as good as I remember being at their sister resort at Little Cayman. The dining room at Cayman Brac has a lot of hard acoustically reflective surfaces. It quickly becomes very noisy.

This trip was enjoyable enough that I am planning to return in 2019.
