I will be making my first trip to Grand Cayman January 17-25th. I received
my open water certification last year and am still a novice diver. Does
anyone have a recommendation on a good dive operator, preferably one that
isn't a cattle boat?

Thanks for any input.

I dove with Foster's, Bob Soto, and Red Sails. I thought Foster's was a
cattle boat and the dive masters were too cutesy for me. It has been
probably 10 years since I dove with them.

I dove with Red Sails this last summer contracted thru Royal Caribbean.
I didn't like them at all. Maybe because all divers were from the
boat. They rushed us thru the 1st dive - big time - and there were
three groups of divers. Several had a little trouble clearing their
ears and the dms aborted the dives of those divers.

I dove with Sotos twice and was very happy with their service, the dms,
boats and dive profiles.

I really liked diving with Bob Soto's when I was in the Caymans two
years ago. Although there were alot of people on the boat, I never felt like
it was a cattle boat. The DM's were nice and helpful.
