While relatively new to spending time on the little rock that is Grand Cayman, I am eager to explore every inch she has to offer. In my short time snorkeling Grand Cayman's crystalline waters and taking in the sights, I have developed a deep respect and reverence for the natural world contained within her boundaries.
Hopefully by building awareness of the people, places and things that are often overlooked or unknown, the hidden side of Cayman will be just a bit more visible for those willing to look.
My passion is snorkeling. I have had the privilege to be able to visit some of the best snorkeling locations throughout the Caribbean and Hawaii; bearing witness some truly fantastic natural sights. Snorkeling Grand Cayman's waters rank up there with the best I have experienced in the Caribbean. To find these most rewarding snorkel spots, you just need to know where to go and be open to exploring.
So for those willing to leave the travel magazine and guidebook world of Grand Cayman behind...I hope to help you find the best snorkeling on Grand Cayman and some other unique spots I have come across; plus provide some advice on what you can expect once you get there.
Please feel free to leave comments on any posts, make recommendations for improving the guides, suggest locations you would like to see guides for, ask any questions regarding snorkeling or anything else about Grand Cayman
