Great Wall West

Great Wall West and its neighbour Great Wall East are the signature sheer-wall dives of Little Cayman. From a reef top at roughly 20 to 30 ft the wall falls straight down, and operators recommend swimming out into the blue to look back at the whole face. Large coral heads on the reef top hide scorpionfish, green morays and young nurse sharks, and Paradise Divers mention the occasional longsnout seahorse. The wall itself carries black coral and big yellow and red sponges, and lettuce sea slugs are a known find. Eagle rays, sharks and turtles are regular visitors.
