3 Tank Safari including the Kittiwake Wreck

Every Wednesday | 08:30 AM | Check-In East End

Experience the ultimate day of diving on our all-day 3-Tank Safari aboard a luxurious 46 ft “Dive-Limo” as you circumnavigate Grand Cayman and explore the island’s most exceptional dive sites. Join fellow adventurers on a journey to the island’s remote coral reefs, dramatic walls, and iconic wrecks—including a dive on the world-famous Kittiwake. This signature trip features two rare dive sites that most divers never get to see, offering a one-of-a-kind experience beyond our usual 55 East End locations. There’s truly no better way to spend a day on the Caribbean Sea than on this unforgettable Three Tank Dive Safari.

The Kittiwake is Grand Cayman’s most iconic shipwreck and a highlight of the Safari. Resting gracefully on a bed of white sand, this former U.S. Navy submarine rescue vessel has transformed into a thriving marine habitat. Even those who think wrecks aren’t their thing often change their minds after diving the Kittiwake—it’s that impressive. To hover beside this massive piece of history, surrounded by crystal-clear water and vibrant sea life, is nothing short of awe-inspiring.
