Cruiser_Rich Posted March 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Cruising in April and need to decide where to snorkel either Grand Cayman or Nassau, both is not an option. Have done the stingray trip in the past so not looking for a combination tour just want to snorkel at the best of the two ports. Anyone that has done both I'd love to hear from you, TIA.

TrpngBilly Posted March 20, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Following this thread too. Hey Rich, if you have any feedback to share after your cruise, will you post it? I'll be cruising to Grand Cayman and Nassau on 4/14 and am interested in what you discover. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted March 20, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 20, 2018 there's really no comparison 'tween the two Cayman all the way ..... I've been to both places over a dozen times and dove or snork'd nearly every time. Cayman is 'world class' and Nassau is 'better than doing nothing' ******* of course you must always factor in uncontrollable variables ...there are days when the weather in Cayman can make any snork' or diving a problem ... as it could in Nassau ..... but one could have had a great Nassau experience and a poor one in Cayman. I've MANY visits to both ... CAYMAN wins, hands down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruiser_7777 Posted March 20, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Cayman for sure. More predictable weather and warmer water then the Bahamas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seafoam Green Posted March 21, 2018 #6 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Grand Cayman, hands down! On our last visit to Grand Cayman, my husband did a dive on the USS Kittiwake wreck while I snorkeled the same site at the surface. It was amazing!

GuavaTechAngels Posted April 26, 2018 #10 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Great...but where is the best snorkeling on GC? Smith's Beach - lots of schools of fish 7 Mile Beach - smaller fish, but we saw stingrays twice, a group of 3 lobsters, and 1 huge 3 foot lobster where the water was about 20ft deep.
