Comments I have been diving for years on both Grand Cayman and Little Cayman and have had many fine experiences. Indigo stands out from the rest because a boat with no more than six divers is simply much more fun than a larger one. Chris, Kate and Bec quickly get to know everybody and one or two of hem lead every dive pointing out many things you might otherwise miss. On board, your gear is brought to you as you sit on the back deck, and a simple forward roll allows entry without ever having to stand up or walk around geared up. Similarly, they take your gear before you climb the ladder to return to the boat. That is a huge help if you are diving a lot or have any back issues.

Everything on the boat is easygoing and relaxed but always careful and safe. An altogether professional, friendly and comfortable operation.
