Diving Expieriences

FishingGoalie · #1 03-20-2014, 04:20 AM

So i will be in Grand Cayman for the next couple weeks. I dive almost every day with a DSLR camera. I will get tonnes of photos for you guys to look at, incase you guys have never dived before. I strongly suggest you try diving at least once. Im staying with my uncle who has lived there for 7 years so i go every year.

Have you guys ever had any cool diving experiences?
Ill start it off with one of my favs. Diving in Little Cayman, which is a sister island of grand cayman, there are 2 tame 3 foot long nassau groupers which you can pet and cuddle with and they won't leave your side. So for the entire time it feels like you have fish guiding you around the reef.

Oh and another cool one is watching the fish line up like at the car wash for the cleaning station.( seen a fish line over 10 ft long before hehe)

Anyways share you diving experiences and ill be sure to post my photos.

Here are a few photos from previous years

I went diving in the vast epics of my 60 gallon bathtub before...

loooool

Super nice pictures though. Hopefully I will get some diving trips in the next year or so! Do you use an underwater housing?

Nice pictures! Where did you dive with the whale shark? I did a whale shark snorkel trip from Isla Mujeres but diving with them is illegal.

My favorite is the eagle rays. Also, no more spearing lion fish here now. Reef shark was chasing a diver in east end last week to get their lion fish...so now no more lion fish culling while diving with dive companies.
