Comments Simply, wonderful fantastic resort and dive operation. All resort and dive staff extraordinarily friendly and super competent. Food and service superb.

Closest Airport Little Cayman Airport (LYB) Getting There Traveled Pres Day's weekend, arrived Grand Cayman (GCM) Sat, 15 Feb. Seemed all the planes (5-6) in the world arrived at one time. We had two hour layover and were in line for over 1 hr 15 min for customs. Looked like we were going to miss our flight to LYB, six loops left, so we asked to go to the front of the line and they let us. Made our flight, which, ironically left late. I recommend arriving at GCM as early as possible, even if it means spending a night at a hub, or travel midweek.
