Technical & Recreational Diving
Imagine floating over a 3000′ precipice neutral and swimming with the fish. This is diving on the walls of Grand Cayman.
Overview
Join us for a Week of Deep Wall Diving on some of the loveliest walls in the Caribbean.
Technical Divers
This is the perfect opportunity to break our your rebreather or jump on your side mount cylinders. Grand Cayman is CCR Friendly and prepared for technical divers wanting to stay longer or go deeper.
Recreational Divers
This is a different way to dive because you will be on the same boat as our technical divers. However, you will still get to make 2 dives and have a surface interval in between, The other divers will be just gone for a while.
How much diving can I do?
We have planned for both morning and afternoon dives. There is also shore diving available near the condos if the wind is coming from its normal direction.

8 days/ 7 nights/5 days technical or recreational diving, double occupancy, cylinders for recreational divers, weights, and trip shirt, and travel leaders,

Is there Technical Diving?
Grand Cayman is an ideal place to utilize your technical diving skills. There are deep walls with shallowign reefs for decompression stops. You are limited by your certification level and your buddy’s certification level.
There is no solo diving in technical diving situations and solo diving is prohibited in the Cayman Islands.
May I dive my rebreather?
This is a rebreather friendly trip and using rebreathers is encouraged. There will be an additional charge for rebreather cylinders, oxygen fills, helium and sorb. Rebreather divers need to notify us as soon as possible to make sure the operator reserves cylinders for you.
Where will we be diving?
Generally we will be diving on the North side of Grand Cayman but the weather and wind direction may change the plans requiring we dive on the west side or the south end of the island.
