Eagle Ray Pass, Diving the Drop Off - Grand Cayman
In 2014, I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to spend some time working at Cathy Church's Photo Centre in Grand Cayman. Cathy kindly let some of us take her own boat out on our day off to go where ever we wanted. We headed north to one of Grand Cayman's premier sites, Eagle Ray Pass. Located on the north wall it has a dramatically steep and breathtaking drop off to the main wall with a stunning natural archway. It was incredible to look down into the deep blue depths suspended over thousands of feet of water. We enjoyed amazing visibility that day and the whole dive site to ourselves apart from a couple of Eagle Rays swimming past.

Diving USS KITTIWAKE wreck - Grand Cayman Island
USS KITTIWAKE WRECK. Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, British West Indies.
251 long ship with 5 accessible decks to dive with great VIZ.
History:
Designed as a submarine supply ship, the USS Kittiwake was built in Savannah, Georgia, USA. It launched on July 10th, 1945 and was assigned to support and rescue duty with Submarine Squadron 6. In the 1950's she was stationed in the Atlantic and served silent service ships. In July of 1960 the USS Kittiwake stood ready to assist the George Washington, which launched the first successful Polaris ballistic missiles.
During the 1960's she continued to support submarines in Rota, Spain, and Greece. She then assisted with search and recovery of torpedoes while stationed in Norfolk, Virginia. In late 1965 the Kittiwake assisted in the recovery of a German submarine (S-171).
In 1984 the Kittiwake collided with the the attack submarine USS Bergall. The cause was a miss-wired main drive which caused it to operate in the opposite direction than expected. The bridge personnel saw the submarine approaching and ordered an increase in speed to avoid the collision. This resulted in the stern of the Kittiwake hitting the Bergall's sonar dome.
The USS Kittiwake was decommissioned on September 30, 1994 and then purchased by the Cayman Islands government in 2004. In July 2010 she was sunk off the west coast of Grand Cayman and became an artificial reef. Come and explore this amazing historical wreck dive today!
