Little Cayman Diving Day 1

Our first day of diving at little Cayman introduced us to some epic swim-throughs where tunnels cut through the reef from the shallows to the big wall drop-off.

Heather was in her element taking photos of all of the tiny sea life.
Our first taste of the Big Wall. The reef starts out at about 15 feet deep and heads down to around 60-80 feet before it goes straight down a sheer cliff to 3,000 feet deep.
The deep blue that you get looking down into the abyss is a very special thing.
Our dive group was usually about 8-10 people throughout the week. I think the most divers we had in the water at any one time was 14. While the guide was available to follow around, you can go off and do your own thing as long as you follow your max depth and bottom time limits.

A puffer fish was zooming around, checking out all the divers.

At the edge of the reef where the rocks drop straight down 3,000 feet. This was the start of our next dive.

The big wall is really amazing.

  1. Wow Uncle Doug. All this time and I never knew you were a diver. I got certified back in 2002. Too cool yall are enjoying everything above and below the waterline. Twice as amazing is that we were in Cozumel and Progresso from Jan 6 – Jan 12 on a Southern Rock music cruise. Can’t get enough of that beautiful blue water. Keep the photos coming sir.
