Anyone know the best options for a couple days diving at this hotel? I see
Bob Soto is on site and offers boat packages. Is there shore diving at the
property?
TIA

Yup, take the room package only, and book your diving with any dive shop you
like.

When I boat dive on GC I dive with Danny at "Off the Wall Divers",
345-916-0303.

Nope.

My three top picks for diving on the west/north side would be Red Baron, Off
the Wall Divers and Wall to Wall Divers. Bob Soto doesn't get particularly
good reviews. And there's no shore diving at TI.

You can snorkel - I never tried to scuba there - nor have I ever seen
anyone snorkel there.

I have dove with Soto's - I thought they were pretty good - but it has
been 4 - 5 years ago. I've seen disparaging remarks in this NG so
things could have change.

Overall, I liked the property, however me wife works for FEDEX so we get
a discounted price as well as deeply discounted tickets on Cayman
Airways. Guess I should go back but I have never been overly impressed
with the diving. I love StingRay City, and have no desire to do East
Side diving.
