Comments I have dived Pirates Point on Little Cayman many times over the last 40 years. This was the first time I had returned since the owner Gladys Howard had died. The resort is being well-run by her daughter and long-time staff members Gay and Michelle. Set on a beautiful beach facing the clear turquoise water, there is a pool, inside and outside dining areas, charming updated rooms, inviting bar and tropical gardens. The diving off Bloody Bay Wall is world-class with wonderful walls, swim-throughs, corals and hundreds of fish. Meals are delicious. It is a little piece of heaven.
