Sixteen Fathoms

Miscellaneous 

Little Cayman lives for and from scuba diving. Every resort offers it. Sitting on the edge of a trench, the island is surrounded by deep water and is famous for its wall dives. Very little shore diving is done because of the presence of a barrier reef along most of the iron-shore coastline. The resorts being located on the south shore, inside the mile-wide and very shallow South Sound, dive boats exit the sound through the only cut in the reef and round the western point to go dive world-famous Bloody Bay about a third of the way on the north side. It is an easy ride a stone’s throw from land that will take most dive boats thirty to sixty minutes depending on the conditions. The images in here were shot with a 2-megapixel Canon Powershot A-20 camera in a casing! This was the dawn of digital photography, yet the results are spectacular.

  • A Matter of Scale September 11, 2022
    On an outing to Montauk yesterday I was treated with whales, spinner dolphins in the distance and a few seals poking their head through the rolling surf, which had attracted many boards. The scale of that humpback (at least I think that’s a humpback) is mind-boggling when you compare it to the fish desperately attempting […]
