Comments The accomodations at the Compass Point were excellent and the dive operator is located on site. The dives were excellent but the dive guides were too obsessed with the 100 foot depth limit. After not paying attention to the signals to ascend, they gave up on me and did not mention this breach of etiquette at all. There is no better place to dive in Grand Cayman than at its East End and no better operator than Ocean Frontiers.
