Good snorkel beach to combine with Sub

[okiecruiser71]

My wife and I are doing the Atlantis Sub but I would also like to be able to snorkel while in Cayman as well.

 

My question: Where is a beach nearby that would offer snorkel equipment rental and halfway decent snorkeling?

We were just there last week. From the Atlantis Sub, continue walking down the street (away from where your tender came in). It is a short walk to Eden Rock (It's a restaurant/bar) and you can rent snorkel equipment there. There is not a beach, but it is fantastic snorkeling. They also have lockers you can rent. We took dry cat food and fed the fish - it was fantastic. We snorkeled at four different spots that day but Eden Rock and the Wreck of the Cali were the best. To get to the Wreck of the Cali, from Eden Rock, walk back past Atlantis Sub, keep walking - once you walk past Hammerheads you will see a dive shop. They have a ladder you can use to get into the water and swim out to the white buoys. It is quite a swim, but it is worth it. We left our stuff in the locker at Eden Rock the entire day while we snorkeled. You will see lots of Tarpon - they are HUGE but they don't have teeth. This was the best snorkeling we have ever done. Look back in this link - there is alot written about snorkeling in Grand Cayman, that's where I got my information.
