Comments [DNS Diving (aka Dive ‘n Stuff) is a superb scuba diving operation on Grand Cayman. I have been diving with them for the better part of 2 months. I liken DNS to a fine boutique hotel, small, intimate, and catering to the individual needs of its clientele. DNS Diving is run by Captain and Dive Instructor Dusty Norman, who is both mindful of and knowledgeable about the marine environment. He is an experienced Cayman diver and points out wonderful critters underwater that I would surely miss. DNS never cancels even if the boat has as few as 2 divers on the boat. (A far cry from the larger “cattle boat” operations like Red Sail). Moreover, Dusty and his staff go out of their way to find the unusual dive site. They are patient with new divers, and permit advanced divers to do their own thing. A great operation!
