Planning a diving trip to Grand Cayman with my son in the first week of Oct. Would appreciate any recommendations on who to dive with. We are both experienced divers. Thanks in advance.

Living the Dream divers. Excellent boats, crew and service.
Cayman University Divers. With CUD you just might have the boat to yourselves that time of year. I used CUD four times - twice there were 3 divers and twice 2 divers. Brad is an excellent guide and really knows how to find the critters. One time he brought a magnifying glass to get a good peek at the wee ones. He is great.
Both are my go to ops.

We’ve used Divetech, good guides and purple boats, plus their shop is at a decent shore-dive site, which you can enter from a concrete pool which has a channel out to the ocean.

Do you already have a place to stay? That might make a difference.
OP

No. I wanted to pick the dive operator first and then pick a place to stay based on the operator. I would also appreciate any recommendations on places to stay in addition to a recommendation for a dive operator.

Are you for Scuba?
There are a lot of good dive ops, Greg. They wouldn’t exist if they weren’t good. If you’re interested in a place to stay and dive, I recommend that you look into Compass Point Dive Resort on the East End and get the dive package with Ocean Frontiers. It will be a lot quieter out there. If you want to include nightlife, best to stay on the West End and dive with the shops already mentioned.

If you are staying on the west end with a west end dive op don’t pick accommodations based on the op. Most ops pick up and drop off free anywhere from Georgetown right up to Lighthouse point. You can stay almost anywhere you want.
