    What's your latest departure story from GCM?

    We left on June 7th @ 12:45. Got to the airport at 10:45 & were sitting at the gate shortly after 11:00. It did appear to be a slow week on the island though...

    June Weather

    Appreciate the replies - hoping not to get there and be cooped up all week. What was the water temp while you were there?

    June Weather

    We are supposed to be heading out to Grand Cayman on Saturday 5/31 - the forecast is showing > 60% of rain from Sunday through Thursday as of right now. Is this something to be worried about or just typical June weather? Supposed to be diving in the morning and hitting the beach in the...

    Dive Ops Around Cabrera, DR

    Appreciate the info. I'll pass it along that it might not be the best for a first dive & also give Merlins a look. Thanks for the help.

    Dive Ops Around Cabrera, DR

    Thanks the reply. I'll look into Sosua - appreciate the heads up about Nagua. Would the waters around Sosua be okay or is the whole north side not a good idea? Thanks

    Dive Ops Around Cabrera, DR

    Anyone have any recommendations on dive ops around Cabrera in the Dominican Republic? I want to set my brother and sister-in-law up with discover scuba while they are on vacation there in a couple of weeks. Not sure how the diving is in that area, but I'm guessing they will love it even if the...

    GC Trip Planning Help

    Legendz was closed over Thanksgiving undergoing what appeared to be a pretty serious remodeling. Didn't see anything that said how long - might want to call them before heading their direction. Agree with Damselfish on the food at Eats - was pretty impressed with the breakfast if you have a...

    Beach people on a Dive Trip?!

    We stayed at Grand Cayman Beach Suites during our trip to Cayman last week. My wife wasn't able to dive this trip so I was in the same position as you (but with no children). The hotel didn't "wow" me, but it did have some nice features (outdoor grill for fairly good lunch, nice beach &...

    Topside?

    Thanks for all the replies! Looks like a lot of great suggestions for us to figure out our trip. We get in late afternoon so should be able to catch a lot of the night festivities. Sounds like a lot of fun!

    Topside?

    That will be one of our first orders of business when we get there - find out where the Turkey is.

    Topside?

    Appreciate all the suggestions. Looked into everything you had listed there and definitely going to have to include some of those. Thanks for listing all them! We'll have to check out cracked conch when we make it up there - that does look pretty cool from their website. Like the idea of...

    Topside?

    Heading to Grand Cayman from Nov 17-25; any recommendations on topside activities, restaurants, etc. that we shouldn't miss while we are there? My wife has to sit out the diving this trip so we will probably be spending a little more time on land then we have the last couple of trips Thanks...

    Ernesto...

    Yes, looks like Tuesday late night / Wednesday morning - should be well blown out by Saturday. I'm more wondering if anyone has a feel for what kind of damage (if any) they are bracing for down there & how long that might last. I know that is all a guess, but maybe someone has experience with...

    Ernesto...

    Supposed to be heading to Ambergris on Saturday, has anyone heard what they are thinking the impact will be when Ernesto hits? Looks like it's tracking straight towards that area now... Anyone in the target area, good luck and stay safe! Thanks

    Fins for High Insteps & Wide Feet

    Thank y'all very much for the responses. Good to hear someone found a pair that worked for them that was in the same position that I was in. I will definitely look into the quattros. I've been looking at the force fin pros as that sounds like a good solution, but with the recent posts in...

    Fins for High Insteps & Wide Feet

    Does anyone have any recommendations for fins that work well with high insteps & wide feet? I wear 9.5 to 10 EE & often have to upsize shoes to get more width and room for the instep. I'm currently in large Scubapro Seawing Novas with basic thin boots and after a couple of dives they really...
