Just got back from Grand Cayman. Despite lost luggage (dive bag) and some serious wind, we still managed to get 5 days of diving in. Tell me what you think...

WAH!!!
Makes we want to go back soooo bad. I've spent a few weeks on the Brac. My first open water dive after certification was on the Bloody Bay Wall over on Little. Talk about getting spoiled!
Nice images. The clarity in the Cayman's is hard to match.

Where on the Cayman did you get these. I came back in January and the reefs on the Cruise Ship side were in pretty bad shape. I was thinking it was due to the hurricane.
These shots are awsome. They remind me of my first reef trip to Honduras back in 1979.

The west side (where the cruise ships normally moor) definitely had some spots where the coral had been scrubbed by the huricane but all in all it was pretty good. We dove Cozumel twice last year after the hurricane and the damage to shallow reefs seemed worse there.
