After waking up and eating breakfast we took a ride in the vans to the boats, ready and excited for our two wreck dives. The fist was at the USS Kittiwake which was sunk in the Caymans in 2011 at a depth of 70 feet, but after a large storm came through it tipped on its side and now...

Today we woke up to a fierce storm unleashing itself on our half of the island. After a slightly wet breakfast we once again boarded our vessel for a new day of diving. In order to do this we had to take a short bus ride to a different dock as the dock at cobalt coast was unsafe to...

Today we had to board the boat on a dock around the corner of the island. A pretty bad thunderstorm was pushing through when we woke up and the water right out front of the hotel was too rough. Rain aside, we were all excited to get back in the water and visit our first stop: the Big Dipper....

This morning I arose from my slumber at the obscenely early hour of 6AM. After waking up and getting dressed, I fueled my body with some eggs, bacon, sausage, and cereal. After that, we boarded the boats and got ready for the 2 dives. The first dive at a dive site called "Big Tunnels", where we reached a maximum...

In a stunning change of pace, the Jesuit Marine Biology Class wakes up at 7:00 A.M. ready to go and lively as ever (Just kidding, everyone slowly ate breakfast, sleepy from the dives earlier in the week). After breakfast, we climbed aboard the good old Twin Sister and made the half hour boat ride to our first dive site,...

From the moment I stepped off the plane and as I arrived at Cobalt Coast Resort, my expectations for this trip sky rocketed. The warmth, the music, and the service had a strong impact on my original perspective of the experience to come. I went swimming with my buddies, ate a great dinner, explored the coast, but most importantly,...

Today started similar to the other days of the week with me waking up to an alarm at 6:30 before heading to breakfast at 7. After a fairly small breakfast of cereal, we were bussed to the second dock on a different part of the island where weather conditioned were deemed better. Once we entered on the boat, we...

Today we awoke early to the mini breakfast buffet served at the resort. This was perfect for kick starting us to be ready for our two tank dive this morning. After leaving the serene breakfast our captain and one of the dive masters, Lee, took us up to a diving spot a little north of the resort. Since it...

After an early wake-up and flight from Dallas Love Field, we made it to Fort Lauderdale, Florida; then to George Town, Grand Cayman; and finally to our dive resort known as Cobalt Coast. Soon after, our group hit the ground running with a quick snorkel right off the dock of the hotel less than a minute's walk from our...
