Cayman Brac East
Why dive here
With 140+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, orcas, sea turtles and pufferfish - Double Wall offers some of Cayman Brac's richest cave diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest August, September, October.
Double Wall is a cracking way to kick off a Brac dive trip, especially if you’re staying up on the northwest end. We love dropping in here first. It’s got a classic Caribbean wall feel, starting shallow and just… dropping. We often find the visibility here can be truly exceptional, sometimes pushing past that 20m average, giving you this incredible sense of scale as you peer down the blue. Keep an eye out for the big barrel sponges clinging to the wall, they’re impressive, and often have a couple of cleaner shrimp busy at work inside. The corals are healthy, lots of star corals and rose coral formations, providing shelter for plenty of smaller stuff. You’ll definitely see schools of fusiliers and snapper, particularly the mutton snapper, hugging the wall, and the resident parrotfish are always munching away, creating those little puffs of sand. We’ve had some fantastic encounters with Caribbean reef sharks here, just cruising by in the deeper water, and it’s a reliable spot for turtles too. For a relaxed but undeniably beautiful wall dive, Double Wall delivers.
