Comments Little Cayman is a remote, scruffy spit of land that sits on one of the best reefs in the Carrib. Because it is remote, you have good privacy underwater and the reef is healthy by regional standards. Also, the island attracts serious divers. The diving is not challenging, it's just that casual divers don't usually seek dive-dedicated destinations like LC. But, there is not much to do topside except enjoy the beach. LCBR does a great job. The rooms are clean but nothing special. The food and service are great. The dive crew is great, too. Not cheap, but worth every penny.
