Grand Cayman Snorkeling

Last time we took a cruise that was supposed to stop at Grand Cayman, the weather was against us. The seas were too high to berth safely at the George Town port, and the other port was full, so we ended up skipping the place. Which was sad, because we really wanted to do something we'd done before, which is to snorkel off the coast at the Eden Rock Dive Shop. You can rent all the necessary equipment and a locker there, and go into the sea right behind the shop.
But this trip, all went well, and we managed to have a leisurely late breakfast and joing the crowds getting tendered off the ship. IT's too shallow near the island to park the ships right next to it, so they drop anchor some way out and smaller boats called tenders work as, basically, water taxis taking you to and from the island.
As usual, I stuck around near the shore while Toby swam out farther. We saw a lot more fish this time than we did the first time we were here, which was nice.
Anyway, on to the pictures!
