- THE 'FRIENDLIEST' ISLAND: Little Cayman is best known for its diving, fishing, snorkeling, and internationally protected bird sanctuaries. Jacques Cousteau rated the Bloody Bay dive site on the north west end as his #3 Best Dive Site in the World! The Cayman Islands have also been rated by Forbes Magazine as the "friendliest island" in the world to visit. Little Cayman Island lies 85 miles east of Grand Cayman, 450 miles south of Miami and 95 miles south of Cuba. The weather from December through May is consistent and reliable, averaging to 80 to 85 degrees with nice island breezes. The island is only 1 mile wide and 10 miles long and is remarkably undeveloped and under populated. There are only about 170 full time residents.

Reservations and advanced booking is recommended for all diving.
