In Cayman, on the Brac, it was difficult. For the outstanding service, and
needing hard cash to get out of the airport (although I think that has
changed with an ATM), it was hard to give more than $5 to everyone, and $10
for the good ones. This really adds up in Cayman, but we felt we under
tipping for their service, but we had to maintain some cash just to get out
of the country. Our personal rule is $10/diver/day for really good service.
Althought we got that on our recent trip to the keys, we only had $60 cash
for two days diving for four divers with great service without visiting an
ATM. That's what we had on hand to give (I don't think a credit card tip is
that great), and he seemed very appreciative of that amount. Give what you
personally want to, or can, for services rendered, over and above what is
expected. It seems any amout is appreciated.
