Been to all of the same spots. So great to see them again and your description of each was the same as I would have done. Thank for the tip on the tide / current at Spots. Was not aware of that. Good to know. It is not the best diving but I have a thing for Cemetery Beach. Not the best diving but the beach makes up for it. Also Smith Cove is nice and Governor's beach is nice too. If you are super new to this and just want to warm up in front of the Marriott is an artificial reef with lots of fish.
Top 5 Snorkel sites that are “free” and also have a Dive Shop/Bathrooms and restaurants: 1) Eden Rock 2) Lighthouse Point 3) Turtle Reef (Macubuca) 4) Cobalt Coast (now called Nova) 5) Sunset House.

Great video. I just came back from my first visit with friends. I wish I had seen your video 1st. We did the drive around the island to Rum Point but didn't bother to stop anywhere other than for a pic or 2. Would have liked to have snorkeled Spotts and the Wyndham, based on your video. We saw a couple Tarpon in the rocks at Devil's Grotto (adjacent to Eden Rock), but couldn't get close because they were so deep. Grand Cayman was a really nice vacation. If you get back again, I would highly recommend snorkeling at Macabuka or even Divetech at Lighthouse point. Instead of heading out offshore with the divers, turn right or left and follow the shoreline. It's a wall dive at this point and all the sea creatures are right at eye level. And make sure to unter each little cove along the wall. That's where 95% of the animals are. We did this about 2-3 times and saw tons of Moray Eels, a handful of Octopus, a bunch of Stone Fish, a ton of different crabs, and lots of other reef dwellers.
Oh wow those spots sound amazing! Thanks for the tip; we will definitely be back to GC in the future. Best vacation we've had - glad you enjoyed your trip too!
This was a great video! So helpful and beautiful footage! Did you bring your own snorkel gear or buy it on the island? Would you mind sharing the brand and type of gear you used? Thank you!
We brought our own gear linked here: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NUD3D5S/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Since this trip we have purchased other snorkel gear; we went to a local shop and got fitted for the right mask, and purchased the Cressi travel fins. We used this new equipment in Aruba in November, and it was much better. The linked setup was great for our first foray into snorkeling before we knew it would become a regular activity/passion. I'd recommend the link for a beginner/newbie
Hey Jen. Just thought I'd add - It's really funny at the very beginning of your video, when your friend says to you - "There's a shadow on you" and you say, "Whatever - it's a free video." That's a great comeback. But it's your friend that is in the shadow - not you! That makes it even funnier.
Hi, its a nice video, but Im so disappointed when I see in many snorkelling videos on you tube people touching the wildlife. Here with the starfish, youre a visitor in their home, have some respect!
Oh man, it's so hard! My two favorites were Spott's and Cemetery. Spott's because swimming with sea turtles is rare, and Cemetery because there was so much variety, and it was large

Gotta say, one of the most informative and helpful cayman vids for us. Nice job. We will save. Thank you

You need to go to Smith's Barcadere. Awesome snorkeling and rocks. Not that intimidating.
Great video but you missed Smiths and Macabuca..my two FAVS!
Great video! What type of camera are guys using under water? We need to get one before our trip. 😊
GoPro Hero 7 :)

GREAT VIDEO!!! where did you stay
Thank you! We stayed near Rum Point at the Sea Lodges - via airbnb or vrbo. I highly recommend, we loved it
Never pickup the starfish!!!!!!
Hi, its a nice video, but Im so disappointed when I see in many snorkelling videos on you tube people touching the wildlife. Here with the starfish, youre a visitor in their home, have some respect!
So which place was the best?
Oh man, it's so hard! My two favorites were Spott's and Cemetery. Spott's because swimming with sea turtles is rare, and Cemetery because there was so much variety, and it was large
