Why dive here
With 327+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, bull sharks, oceanic whitetip sharks, orcas and sea turtles - RIMANDI MIBAJU offers some of Grand Cayman's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 27-31°C, warmest August, September, October.
The Rimandi Mibaju, a steamship built in '43, met its end on Grand Cayman's eastern reef in '64. What’s left now are the widely scattered remains of a fairly large wreck. You’re not getting one intact vessel, but instead, a series of metal plates and engine parts that create an artificial reef. At just 3 meters deep, this site works for just about anyone comfortable in the water. We usually spot plenty of small reef fish darting between the rusty beams, and often a few inquisitive trumpetfish. It’s a good spot for a relaxed shallow dive, especially if you like exploring history that’s been thoroughly reclaimed by the sea.
