August 7-14, 2010 Here's your chance to leave your mark for history in one of diving's premier destinations, the Cayman Islands. We are heading to Grand Cayman on a special trip to find and name a brand new dive site. The best part is that YOU get to decide on the name. As part of the Cayman Islands' Dive 365 Program, to moor and name a dive site for every day of the year (currently there are 300), we'll scout, find and dive some of tomorrow's hottest sites, today. You'll join Ty Sawyer, Editorial Director of Sport Diver and Scuba Diving, on this one-of-a-kind journey. In between the search for Cayman's next famous dive site, we'll explore the best of the little dived East End, the North Wall and even get to Sandbar before anyone else. We'll cover the journey everyday on our website, and feature the story in the magazine, too.
Join us as we explore a side of Grand Cayman that few people ever see. Call to book now – space is limited!
Package price just $1,999 per person, double occupancy, and includes all items noted below.
