Grand Cayman Diving

[DISJen]

Has anyone done the wall dive in Grand Cayman (the Disney Excursion)? I was wondering about the water temp in March and whether a wetsuit would be needed? If so does disney provide these or do we have to provide our own? Where exactly do they take you for the wall dive and how deep is it before the wall starts?

I can give you part of your answer. The walls on Grand Cayman generally start at around 60 '. The water will be chilly in March (we are talking scuba here) and you will probably do well with a 3mm suit, hood and gloves. You'll have to call DCL for the stuff they provide. Generally, I would recommend you bring your own stuff. A wall dive is generally a 100 ft dive and you want to be confident in your gear let alone comfortable. We took our dive gear on a cruise once and dove at several islands on our own. It was fun and worked out well. I use a prescription mask--so that was a must to bring even to snorkle. Just remember the suit shampoo and to leave your dive knife at home.

Ahhhh----gotta love Cayman diving.
