Another day of wonderful diving at Little Cayman begins with a visit to the Big Wall where the reef drops 3,000 feet straight down to the bottom of the ocean.

There are so many awesome sand channels and swim-throughs in the reef around Little Cayman. They are an absolute blast to explore.
After a wonderful swim-through, we discovered a lionfish hanging out on the Big Wall.
Coming up for a safety stop before heading to the next dive site.
We found some black coral on a deeper section of the wall in a swim-through. Black coral is usually much deeper on the reef but this one came up above 110 feet.
There are some amazing huge swim-throughs where it’s a good idea to have a dive light to see where you’re going. These big ones are really impressive. But it’s important to always be sure you have enough bottom time and the right equipment to back-track in case you hit a dead end.
We visited Ann’s Attic dive site on the north side of Little Cayman. This site was named in honor of Ann who was a long-time divemaster on Little Cayman before she suddenly passed due to cancer.

Heather saying hello. She was using her Olympus TG-5 on this trip. Hopefully she’ll get around to posting a few photos.
There is such a riot of fish along the big wall!
The reef edge is basically one huge school of blue chromis fish that are constantly going back and forth in search of food and fun.
