Our trip to Grand Cayman was a great success. We highly recommend Peter Milburn for excellent divemasters and friendly, personal diving trips ( email ). We also liked Eden Rock , and the dive operation at Morritts Tortuga Club was quite good. We were not impressed with Cayman Dive Lodge ( email ) mostly due to a relatively inexperienced divemaster, and that we had to waste most of a potentially great 100 foot wall dive waiting for other divers to get their weight belts adjusted. Also, if you want to do a "romantic" sailboat cruise with excellent cuisine, and snorkeling at Sting Ray City, try Danny Phillips Xanax - was EXCELLENT.
