WaterSports
Exhilarating times await if your idea of excitement involves physical activity, the sun, sand and the sea! There is no limit to what you can do, you just need to know where to start...so head to the beach, take inventory of the activities and dive right in!

If total submersion is not quite for you, then grab your mask, snorkel and fins and enjoy the stunning views from above. If you want to see the reefs but don’t want to get wet, then choose from an assortment of ‘real’ submarines or semi-submersibles to enjoy your view from air conditioned comfort. Skiing, water tricycles, wind surfing … the choices are endless! You can access these services on site from most hotels, or from a list of recommendations on great beach locations if you are staying in a villa, condo or guest house.

Diving
Plunge into adventure! Cayman is recognized as the birthplace of recreational diving in the Caribbean. We've been proudly showing off our spectacular underwater world since 1957 when scuba pioneer Bob Soto opened Grand Cayman's first dive shop. Today, Cayman is one of the world's top dive destinations, with more than 40 dive operations and 200 dive sites marked with moorings. Our warm, calm waters, 100 ft. plus visibility and breath-taking variety of marine life offer a world of exciting logbook entries. Each island offers very different diving adventures for divers of all levels from novice to Nitrox and Tec diving.

Our Sister Islands of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman have preserved that elusive tranquility and natural island charm many search all over the world for. Located 89 miles northeast from Grand Cayman, they are a short flight but an enchanting world away, an eco-tourism paradise for divers and nature-lovers. Their legendary walls and breathtaking marine life have thrilled many of the world's most famous underwater photographers for decades.

Grand Cayman visitors can choose from a wonderland of more than 159 dive sites. It's all here: steep, deep walls adorned with sponges and corals in a stunning array of colours, shallow reefs filled with schooling and solitary fish and small invertebrates, and wrecks featuring photogenic structures and curious marine residents. There's also the World's Best 12 Foot Dive - unique Stingray City. Most dive sites are just minutes offshore.

Sail into the sunset
The Cayman Islands is blessed with a rich sailing heritage. This heritage continues with a strong recreational sailing community. The Cayman Islands Sailing Club is the National Authority for sailing in the Cayman Islands and affiliated to the ISAF and the Olympic movement.

There is a strong commitment to developing the sport in the Cayman Islands, and the club maintains a strong school and youth training programme. If you are a really keen sailor, interested in taking up the sport or just want to join our social activities, you'll fit in straight away! The CISC is happy to provide lessons or recreational sailing to tourists visiting Grand Cayman.

If you are interested in taking a day sail, sunset sail or a romantic dinner cruise, there are various charter operators in Cayman that can accommodate private charter or scheduled service. There is no better way to experience the dramatic Cayman sunset than under sail.
