Located 90 miles northeast of Grand Cayman--less than an hour by plane--Cayman Brac boasts two shores of top-notch wall diving. It's also home to the MV Capt. Keith Tibbetts, the only diveable Russian warship in the western hemisphere, and a handful of beachfront dive lodges.

With walls on both the north and south shores of the island, there is usually no problem finding a lee. The southern wall of Cayman Brac is topped by spur-and-groove corals and offers sheer drop-offs with plenty of vertical swim-throughs, tunnels and grottoes. The sloping north shore wall features more sponge life with big barrel, strawberry and vase sponges sheltering a variety of marine life.
