This book is interesting, but you need to know that is was written before the last Hurricane and not all of the same spots are still there and information about the island has changed.

I bought this book with the hopes of learning about good snorkeling sites at Grand Cayman. I wanted information so that I could decide what places would be worth our time and would be okay to take our 9 year to (as well as a map of the location). I was quite disappointed. It describes numererous dive sites and gives a "star rating" for snorkeling of these sites. However, it does not really address snorkeling individually. There are several well known snorkel sites that are not even mentioned in this book. Thankfully, I learned about these sites over the internet so that we can enjoy them during our stay. This book did not help me prepare at all. I imagine it is good for those who dive though.

Lawson has continued with the attention to detail that he began in the 1st Edition with the best guide to dives sites for the Caymans.Very logical layout... format is easy to read and particularly interesting to follow...There are books that might do a good job of describing a particular site or two, but this book is the most comprehensive I've found.
