Cayman Brac lodging and dive op recommendations

[Fastmarc]

Hi all, I'm planning on treating myself to a dive trip to Cayman Brac one weekend in May, so I am looking for recommendations for places to stay and good dive ops.
Any help will be appreciated.

Sweet. Thanks. I'll give those a look.

btw those are the only 2 dive operations afaik.

The latest SB Surge just returned from Brac Reef Resort (last week) so there's probably about 25 people here with very current info.

There are only 2 dive ops, as others have said: Brac Scuba Shack and Reef Divers. Both are located within a 3 minute drive of each other, both on the south side, west end, south of the airport.

We always stay at Brac Caribbean Beach Village (pictured above). This is a condo, so might be more room than you need. The sister condo resort at this location is called Caribe Sands. There's a pool and restaurant (Captains Table) on site. Scuba Shack picks up from the 2 story dock right on the property (photo). There's a protected reef out front for snorkeling or shore diving, resident eagle ray and some nurse sharks are often spotted there.
We don't prefer "meal plans" or paying for them, but if you'd prefer that, then the hotel at Brac Reef is where most go. Lots of other great condos and inns on island, too. Meet the local Brackers while you're there...that's the reason we keep going back.
We love the Brac....always happy to answer more questions if you have them. Or message me.

The Scuba Shack website has a fair amount about accomodations, include the Caribe Sands, mentioned above

Carib Sands Beach Resort is Cayman Brac's Premier Vacation-rental property. Scuba diving, fishing and relaxation.

Since you are only going for a weekend, the Cayman Brac Beach Resort and Reef Divers sounds like the easiest option because everything will be taken care of and you will only have to show up and sleep, eat, and dive!

Keep in mind that the Wait to Fly rule after diving will be a factor when planning your trip.

I think KathyV nailed it on the head for a short trip. We're going in a couple of week and will be staying here for the week: VRBO.com #318045 - Dreams Do Come True, So Relax, Dive, Rock Climb, Explore & Lots of Peace & Quiet. I will post a full report shortly after my return!
