Dedicated camera table away from dive deck. I do not know if they still offer E6. Everyone seems to be digital now. |

I have been to Grand Cayman twice before. I may not go again (to Grand Cayman), however, Little Cayman (Bloody Bay Wall) made it worth every penny. The Brac was nice. I am going again next week. Nitrox is available for an extra fee, but, you must tell them you want Nitrox when you make your reservation. You are required to spend an afternoon on Cayman Brac when the boat is refueled. If you want to see the island stop at the store and grab some food. If all of the guests show up at the same restaurant at the same time it will use up most of your time. The locals operate on island time, hurry is not in their vocabulary. Both Nekton boats make excellent diving platforms. The crews on all three of my trips so far have been excellent and very helpful. Steel 95s are used on the Rorqual. |
