Comments Wall to Wall Diving was everything I had expected from reading prior reports and corresponding with Giles and Deanna the husband and wife owners. Since last year they have added a second 42 foot boat to their deservedly growing business and each would accompany one of the two boats along with a second dive master. Our boat was broken up into two groups and our group was limited to three divers. My wife was more comfortable having a DM/Guide along with her on our dives and Wall to Wall accommodated. By the end of the first day of diving all anxiety was gone and my wife enjoyed her all around best week of diving. She swears by this operator and we will definitely return. Giles and Deanna feel that most dive injuries occur on the boat with divers sliding and falling walking with their gear on and getting tossed about. They deal with this by having the divers sit on the stern facing aft and the crew carries your previously set up (by the crew) gear from the station to the diver and assist with getting it on. The diver can then just giant stride into the water without the need to walk on a heaving deck. Very nicely done. We stayed at The Wyndham Suites accross the street from Seven Mile Beach...clean, adequate, perfect pre-dive continental breakfast included and lovely service. Wall to Wall picked us up at 8AM in front of the hotel every morning. We were back from a two tank dive usually no later than 12:30. The restaurants in Grand Cayman, in my opinion, offer the best and priciest food in the Caribbean....Don't miss The Wharf Restaurant and the 9PM tarpon feeding extravaganza. I know Wall to Wall has suffered some damage from this summer's storms and I wish them and everyone else in the effected areas a speedy recovery.
