Snorkelling on Grand Cayman

The Cayman Islands are renowned for their excellent scuba diving but they are equally excellent for snorkeling. The vibrant tropical fish, clear warm water and spectacular coral reefs are easily accessible from the shore in many locations around Grand Cayman Island.

Spectacular locations right on the doorstep of the Aqua Bay Club are:

• West Bay, Turtle Farm
• West Bay, Cemetery Reef

To the south:

• George Town, Wreck of the Gamma
• George Town, Chesse Burger Reef
• George Town, Wreck of the Cali
• George Town, Eden Rock/Devil's Grotto
• South Sound, Blue Parrott
• South Sound, Smith's Cove

Also on Grand Cayman Island but further from Aqua Bay Club:

• Stingray City - the famous feeding ground for stingrays located in the shallow waters of the North Sound is a wonderful snorkeling experience
• Bodden Town, Beach Bay
• Bodden Town, Cemetery
• East End, Colliers
• East End, Queen's Monument

Almost all of these sites are accessible from the beach so just jump in the water and you will be able to see reefs, wrecks and the multi-colored marine life - including Moray eels, Sand Tigers, Queen Triggerfish, parrotfish, angelfish, turtles, sponges and stingrays.
