Why dive here
With 129+ marine species recorded in the area - including blue sharks, blue whales, dolphins, dwarf minke whales and great white sharks - Boarfish Reef offers some of Victoria's richest reef diving.
Eagle Ray Pass, up on Grand Cayman's North Side, feels like a proper deep dive, even though our maximum here is 25m. The reef stretches towards the barrier, a mix of chunky finger corals and sandy patches. It's the kind of site where you drift along the wall, keeping an eye out into the blue. We love it for those mid-morning dives, just as the light really starts to filter down. We've often seen Caribbean reef sharks cruising the drop-off, and, true to its name, spotted eagle rays often glide through the sandy channels. It’s also a surprisingly good spot for the smaller stuff if you slow down; look for pearl blennies poking out of holes and cryptic clingfish nestled in the coral. We'd suggest this site for anyone comfortable with a gentle drift and happy to spend time looking both wide and small.
