Comments This was our third trip with Nekton and on the Rorqual. By far the best trip with them. The crew was great. Captains Nelson & Mike, DM's Denise & Kat took care of you. Only the second week on the cayman intinary when we went. Still ironing out some bugs. Diving was great-Made a dawn dive on the MS Tibbets lots of fish. Great photo opp. Couple of big groupers just hanging out. Bloody wall was another great dive site. Food was good. Nitrox was not available-broken. Only negative was having to spend the day in Cayman Brac while the Nekton refueled. In Sting Ray City the sting rays were very aggresive. Would do this site again on the Rorqual.
