Half Moon Cay - name on the waiver was "Never Enough" Ltd, the same name of the boat. Boat only took 6 divers at time to the reef - there were 4 of us on our one tank one hour trip. One 14 year old kid with only 8 dives BY HIMSELF! Stuck with the DM, but he managed to go OOA and had to get towed back to the boat on the surface by the DM.
The shallow reef was pretty good, with a number of swim throughs. Lots of eels - garden and spotted. Stingrays, small nurse shark. Used their 3mm shorty and learned why I've not bought one - brushed some fire coral in one of the swim throughs.
Didn't get to dive in Grand Cayman as it only had room for 6 on the ship's excursion. I could have emailed ahead, but was hoping we would clear on the waiting list. So we snorkeled and "snuba'd" instead\ with Kirk's Seatours and Watersports. They also did the ship's "Discover Scuba" excursion. This was my first try using the "long hose"
Had fun diving on a shallow wreck called the Cali. Got some great pictures, especially the reef squid.
Cozumel - Servicos Touristicos Subacaticos - a couple of crew wore shirts saying "Snorkel and Scuba Center". Large 48' Newton that picked us up right at the pier. Real babysitters for those that needed it - but DM told us that we just needed to keep him in sight for the second dive and had a little latitude to explore a bit away from the "crowd" of 8 other divers. Dove on Tormentos and Paradise reefs. Again a ton of life - lots of lobster, rays, sea cucumbers and eels. Only bummer was my camera quit after 20 minutes into the first dive. I put uncharged batteries back into it before we left, and didn't bring any extras.
All in all a great week of vacation with some diving thrown in.
