Mar 31, 2007 10:23 AM Staff | Dive Master We just can't believe that our week here is coming to a close, but wew will still be dreaming about it for the weeks to come.
From the moment that the twin otter touched down on the small runway is has been deliciously peaceful, and great fun! The diving has been so relaxed wtih Calebs beautiful maps and Woz guiding us if we needed. The turtles have been at so many of the dive sites, wit glimpses of reef sharks out in the crystal blue water. And so many rays! Eagle Rays swooping by as if looking for applause snd yellow rays gently blending into the coral head colours. The eye sharp award ahs to go to Annabelle, finding the peacock flouders as well as the juvenile spotted drums. We've been diving all around the world; The great barrier reef, the Maldives and Red Sea, to name a few. What I had forgotten was just how special the coral reef is here. It strikes you as soon as you jump in- you see so many butteflyfishes (they only eat coral polyps) and so few brittlestars (they only eat dead coral). We came here to dive as a way of testing if my husband's injured foot was going to put an end to his diving career. Everyone has been so helpful on the boat and getting in and out of the water. The great news is that he is diving, enjoying it and already planning future trips back to Reef Divers!

Each member of staff was polite and full of knowledge about the conditions, the marine life and diving in general. The boats are state of the art and the service is unparallel. I only touched my equipment twice, when I delivered it to the boat and unfortunately when I had to take it home to be packed.
The Diving was second to none. Bloody Bay Wall is exceptional and one of the best dive areas in the world. To say that this is a healthy marine environment is an understatement. To say this is a world class dive operation doesn't do enough to describe the professional service, positive environment and fun experiences provided by Reef Divers Category: General | Posted By: Dive Master Mar 30, 2007 12:22 PM By Bryan Cook I came to Little Cayman Beach Resort and Reef Divers with my local die shop -The Scuba Shop in Spartanburg, SC. Though I have been on many drive-and-dive vacations in Florida and the Carolines, this was my firt trip to a dive resort.
The trip was absolutely first class!! Reef Divers' staff are second to none - they are friendly, enthusiastic and tons of fun!! They are also very knowledgeable about the dive sites around Little Cayman - which is the main reason for being here....! The diving off Bloody Bay Wall was simply amazing - the reef was exceptionally healthy and the marine life was abundant. We saw reef sharks, nurse sharks, turtles, eagle rays, stingrays, eels, lobsters, fish, fish and more fish.......... too many to name! Visibility was also amazing. My group ws aboard Holiday Diver II with Paul Tanner and Warren, and I can't say enough good things about these guys, they are simply the best divemasters/crew I have evr experienced at any dive operation. Many thanks!!

The boats are state of the art and the service is unparallel. I only touched my equipment twice (other than when diving), when I delivered it to the boat and unfortunately when I needed take it home to be packed. The diving ws second the none. Bloody Bay Wall is exceptional and one of the best dive sites in the world. Words cannot describe the exhuberance I felt when first moving through a swim through that started on the pan at 30' and emerging at 110' looking into the deep blue and a 6000' wall. To say this is a healthy marine environment is an understatement. To say this is a world class dive operation, doesn't do enough to describe the professional service, positive environment and fun experiences provided by Reef Divers at Little Cayman Beach Resort.

My only experience with El Caribbe has been through books, movies and stories of lucky travellers.
All this has changed with my amazing week in Little Cayman at Little Cayman Beach Resort. How lucky am I to choose one of the top dive resorts in the world? Extremely lucky. From the moment the plane touched dopwn on the airstrip - which doubles as a baseball diamond - I knew I was in Paradise. Every member of staff which I encountered had a warm and friendly "hello" and inspired us all to slow down and get on Little Cayman time. The Caribbean warmth spilled over and in no time I was exalaiming "no worries!!" The food has been continuous and scrumptious. Individual staff have gone out of their way to provide us with a personalised service, always with a smile and great attitude. When it was time to dive, our crew - Captain Ron and Dottie - provided us with laughter, experise and lots of jokes! The diving is undescribable in its beauty, filling me with images that will last a lifetime. From the Resort Manager, Jim Henry, to Carmen, one of many staff, they made our stay so enjoyable and unique that it seemed as though we were now part of the family of Little Cayman Beach Resort. This vacaction will now be the measure of all future vacations and if any resort or hotel can provide HALF of the service and warmth we received this week, then they are doing well. Trips and memories like this last a lifetime and whenever I think of LCBR, a smile will come to my face and I will remember the mantra of "no worries!" Thank you LCBR and Reef Divers for being my first Caribbean experience! Category: General | Posted By: Dive Master |
