The Caribbean is a top dive destination, and with good reason. Numerous islands offer outstanding underwater delights, and I?ve been fortunate to partake of them.

No matter where you plunge into the waters of the Cayman Islands, you?ll find yourself in some of the best scubadiving territory in the world. Each of the islands offers dozens of dive sites. Little Cayman is the most pristine, and many believe it offers the best diving, much of it right off the beach. I dove mostly in the waters around Cayman Brac, where the wall diving—diving along a sheer vertical face that drops, in some cases, thousands of feet—is especially impressive. Popular sites right off Seven Mile Beach have suffered in recent times because of heavy traffic.
