Cayman is a world-class dive destination that has attracted scuba divers since the very early days of diving. Amazing wall dives, beautiful coral reefs, warm water and great visibility that often reaches 100 feet, keep bringing divers back, so it is no surprise that the Cayman Islands has been voted 2015 #1 Overall Dive Destination in the Caribbean/Atlantic.

Red Sail Sports takes divers to the famed North Wall that plunges dramatically down to 6000 feet, and where eagle rays and sea turtles are often spotted. Many of the island’s most famous dive sites are a short boat ride from the beach on Grand Cayman’s West side. The Summer Sizzler dive Screen Shot 2015-04-22 at 8.15.57 PMpackage also includes a dive on the USS Kittiwake, a purpose-sunk wreck that sits on a sandy bottom in 65 feet of water off Seven Mile Beach. This amazing artificial reef is one of Grand Cayman’s most popular and most photographed dive sites. Experienced divers can explore the wreck’s interior rooms, while novices and snorkelers can check out the exterior.

Red Sail Sports is known for its outstanding customer service from dive shops to dive boats. Red Sail Sports has been offering services on Grand Cayman for 27 years and it operates facilities at resorts along Seven Mile Beach, Rum Point and East End. A look at comments posted last month on TripAdvisor, a travel website confirms it.

The guides were excellent, the hire equipment was excellent, the boat was great, the service was first class – and it’s just an all round very professional set up with a huge amount of experience. I would definitely use Red Sail again – felt really confident from start to finish and that’s what counts.”

Fun, Talented, Safe, Educated barely scratch the surface of what characterizes this organization. You would think that diving every day would become blasé but the dive team is always just as excited to see a random eagle ray or green moray as the folks down for just a week or two. I can’t say enough good things about them. I usually stay at the Westin and Aga who runs the dive shop is an absolute gem who will take awesome care of you.”
