Jardines de la Reina

Known as one of the best dive sites within the Jardines de la Reina National Park, Los Mogotes has it all: a mini wall drop off, healthy reef, and cavern overhangs with lots of active marine life.

East of the Government Shipping Dock on the north side road. Look for the end of white cement wall and you’ll find a small turn left to a small dirt path road, leading to the cut where you can park.

There is a beautiful coral garden here that also looks quite healthy but the fish life is sparse, possibly due to overfishing by the local community.

With over 50 named dive sites, Cayman Brac, the least populated of the Cayman Islands, has something for everyone. Breathtaking wall dives, great wrecks, and beautiful coral gardens.

Buccaneers Reef is an easy entry shore dive on the western end of Cayman Brac. A thriving reef great for beginning divers and snorkelers alike. Lots of reef life to see.

This spectacular wreck lies on the northwest side of Cayman Brac but is also accessible by boat from Little Cayman. This 330-foot-long Koni II class frigate was built for the Cuban Navy by the Soviet Union in 1984. It was purchased by the Cayman Islands and sunk in 1996 as an artificial reef and dive site.

Beautiful wall dive site with a swim through and a small wreck. The top of the wall at East Chute is 45-50ft with sandy channels down to the wall. The Cayman Mariner wreck lies in the sand at about 55ft and home to a lot of macro life.

Using the same mooring pin as Knuckles, swim towards East Chute (west) and you are on Coral Anchors dive site. There is an anchor sticking out of the reef at 80ft and another one at about 90ft farther towards East Chute.

A number of sandy channel leading to the reef wall and drop off. Top of the reef is an average of 50ft. Many cleaning stations and barrel sponges to be seen.

Shallow dive site on the North West End of Cayman Brac. A sloping miniwall starts at 10m/30ft and meets the sand at a depth of 16m to 20m/55 to 65 ft. Abundant patches of coral surround the miniwall.
