hillbilly73 Posted August 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2017 We got a cancellation email from Celebrity for our dive excursion. Another passenger called and it looks like they are cancelling all dive excursions on Cayman. The 10:00 AM arrival and 6:00 PM departure makes a late arrival for morning dives, that is why we booked with the cruise line to begin with. Anybody else in the same situation and found an alternative? Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scanditaly Posted August 25, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Hi Al, thanks for posting. Got the same e-mail. We are on Silhouette Feb 18, 2018. What's your ship and sail date? If anyone has any good referrals to share, I'm glad for the info. I would have preferred to stick with an official Celebrity excursion as it is my DD who will be diving and I'm more comfortable with that. The rest of us will be on a Stingray tour. Does anyone know any more about either the timing or any other reasons? Scanditaly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omeinv Posted August 25, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I'll be there in Late October on the Equinox. I'm booked with Epic Divers (http://www.epicdivers.com). I've not dove with them before, so I don't yet have a concrete review. However, they have been extremely responsive, and offer port pick up and return. I'll try to remember this thread after my trip, and come back and let you know how things went. Harris Denver, CO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted August 25, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 25, 2017 you can always shore dive at Eden or Sunset .... no schedule worries with either of these ... unless conditions prevent which does happen sometime .. but in those times few ships make the stop as tendering is a problem too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillbilly73 Posted August 25, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Thanks for the responses. One of the guys from our roll call contacted Epic we have 3 easy and we have another diver on the thread so we should be able to come with 4 at least in less than 24 hours since the email so hopefully more and we can work something out with them. Omeinv please report back after your trip. Capt_BJ we will shore dive if nothing else works out. Scanditaly we are on the Equinox the week before you guys. We did the stingrays in February it is blast. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac66 Posted August 26, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Eden Rock is a couple blocks from the docks. Easy walk no time constraints and the diving isn't too bad just off shore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you tell me if Eden or Sunset beaches are also good for snorkelling? We would like to just go on our own so we are not spending half the time waiting on others. Thanks for your time. Sandy.

Eden is great for snorkeling. There are both steps and a ladder to enter the water. We walk to the Paradise restaurant and camp out there every time we visit Grand Cayman.
