Cayman Brac Scuba Diving - Nassau Grouper
When you go scuba diving in Cayman Brac, the first thing you'll probably hear about is the beautiful Anchor Wall on the south side of the island. This wall has several swim-throughs, multiple crevices, and an old anchor partially buried into the wall. This dive site is for intermediate divers. It starts at about 65 feet, and the marine life includes stingrays and nurse sharks.
There are a few wreck dives, but the most popular one is the MV Captain Keith Tibbetts. This is a Russian ship that was intentionally sunk to create a new home for all kinds of marine life. These days the outer hull is encrusted with colorful coral, and a dazzling variety of fish swim throughout the ship. This wreck is probably an intermediate dive as well. The depth of the ship varies from 30 feet to 100 feet.
