“best dives of my Life.”

Cayman Brac

Wow first class service, 10 star rating. First class staff.

Craig, Carl and Katie: make this a win win situation.

If you are looking for Diving, real diving, no cattle car, safety first, dedicated to your needs, then this is the place to book with. This may be the best kept secret diving adventure place ever.

This is one of those reviews you kind of hate to do, because you know more people will want to come dive with them, but I just cannot in good conscience not write this review nor can I say anything bad about my trip.

We live in Alaska, so planning a dive trip is a bit more travel than for those in the lower 48 states. I have to tell you we will book again and most likely next year. Every site we dove I want to dive again and again. The opportunities for photography, dive training, adventure, and species viewing are just indescribable.

Never did we dive where another operation was diving, all instructions, descriptions of the dive site, were exceptionally well done, Never rushed, never ignored, and every question answered. I wish all dive operators had to hold themselves up to these standards. I wish I had had the opportunity to do my first dives and certifications with a crew so dedicated to
Keeping you safe and making sure you were truly qualified to dive and people who made sure you had a good, fun and safe Dive.

Indepth water sports is Padi 5 star but these guys need a times 10 rating, they also are SDI TDI 5 star, DAN and BSAC members and they do not sell dive gear!!

Wow, how can a dive operation survive without selling gear, well I will tell you how, they offer the best diving package for divers who just love to dive. That is how.

Am I going to tell you about the fish, rays, coral sponges and how clear and warm the water is? Nope, go find out for yourself, write your own review and let me know how your trip was.

We spent 9 days on Cayman Brac and 6 of those days diving, next time we will stay longer and Dive more.


The people on Cayman Brac are very nice, even if they do drive on the wrong side of the road.

Craig, Katie, and Carl treated us like the individuals that we are. Sincere, trusting, flexible, accommodating ---and interesting. They love what they do, and, it shows. The number of divers on the boat is limited, enabling Indepth Watersports to create an individualized experience. They developed dive plans that are based on the group or individuals, and, took time to let us explore and be in places that were unique to the trip. And, they know the dives sites, expertly. Bravo! I highly recommend them when diving in Cayman Brac.

“On Cayman Brac one of the best dive operations we have ever used.”

We have been diving for over ten years, mostly in the Carribean. On the Brac, after an initial disappointing experience with one of the dive operations several years ago, we have usually just done shore diving. In March, 2008 we went back to the Brac for our third visit and had the best week of diving in our experience. A big piece of this was our accidental discovery of Indepth and 2 days of absolutely spectacular diving with them.

Indepth is relatively new to Cayman Brac, but the owner, Craig, is a very experienced and knowledgeable veteran of Cayman Brac diving. His dive boat is large (40 foot sportfisher), comfortable, and well shaded. Water entry and egress are by stern platform and ladder. There is warm fresh water for a post dive shower. He is so committed to Nitrox diving that he does not charge extra for Nitrox. His dive masters are capable and friendly. I think they would be very helpful in supporting divers newer to the sport.

Craig's philosophy is that you will have the best experience at sites where he prefers to dive. He took us to dive sites that he personally likes and are not necessarily on the usual maps of the Brac. We managed a divie off the south shore due to rare favorable surface conditions. For that dive, one of his dive masters, off duty that day, came along, because it's a site she particularly likes and rarely gets to dive. If you press him, he would probably agree to take you over to Bloody Bay wall on Little Cayman. Don't do it!! The places he took us off the Brac were at least as good, usually better, than anything we saw on Little Cayman diving with Conch Divers (also a very good operation).

Diving with Indepth is particularly enjoyable for experienced divers because they don't impose arbitrary restrictions on the duration of the dive, and they don't bring up the group when the first person reaches the end-of-dive tank pressure limit. They allow you and your buddy to use the maximum bottom time permitted by your computer dive profile or your air consumption. Although their dive masters are available on the bottom and are glad to show you interesting creatures, they are perfectly happy to let you do your own dive without intrusion.

Although Craig charges more per dive than other Brac operators, there are unanticipated side benefits in addition to free Nitrox. He generously let us use tanks, buoys and weights for shore diving at no additional charge.. When one of us broke the strap attachment on her fin, he loaned her a spare set - no charge.

Based on this trip, the next time we go to the Brac, we shall do less shore diving and will spend a lot more time with Indepth.

“Loved our experience!”

Indepth Watersports

What a great operation. Super helpful folks. Craig found us a house, rental car, the works and managed to fit us in even though he was in the middle of an insane week supporting the filming of a movie. The locals dive with these guys, does that say it all? Night dives are necessary to go with the competition who are very nice too -- just a bigger operation with more people and less one-on-one attention. These guys are pros. You won't be dissapointed.

“Great and Unique Brac Diving Experience”

Just returned from a fabulous week of diving!
We are return visitors to The Brac for more than 17 years. We found that Craig's relatively new dive operation was the best diving experience we have had on the Brac. It is a small, hands-on operation small, comfortable, well-equipped boat....with a limited number of divers....far from the "cattle-boat" approach of the other operations here.

Craig and Carl have an intimate working knowledge of Brac diving. There are a number of sites that are not previously known and offer wonderful untouched walls and reefs. All breifings were thorough and on-target.

This is a leisurely operation not dependent on hotel lunch schedules. It is a pleasure to leave the pier at 10 am instead of the more typical early departures.

Craig and Carl and Katie take a personal interest in the needs and desires of divers and they try hard to accomodate. They are completely professional, safety-conscious and personable. We have always been enthusiasts of Little Cayman diving, but can honestly say that we thoroughly enjoyed Brac diving with the InDepth team. We felt we were valued customers and look forward to diving with them again in the future!


Craig is also happy to help arrange for accomodations.
As we are time-share holders, we found the former Divi apartments worked great.......and are located a 2 minute walk to the dive shop.

GREAT JOB guys!!
