Coordinates: Cayman Islands Department of Environment, Little Cayman and Cayman Brac public moorings (GPX, January 2023). Each site uses its named mooring; the Bloody Bay Wall sites are moorings along that wall. They mark each site in general, not an entry point.

Rules we can cite from official sources. Check them yourself before you dive; they change.

• The DoE has installed public moorings to protect reefs from anchor damage. Use a mooring instead of anchoring whenever possible; it is an offence to damage coral anywhere in Cayman waters. Cayman Islands DoE · Public Moorings
• The maximum stay on a public mooring is 3 hours. Do not use moorings in winds of 25 knots or more. Cayman Islands DoE · Public Moorings
• Marine Park zones carry their own rules (for example, no taking of marine life in Marine Reserve zones and no SCUBA diving in No Diving zones without permission). Check the zone with the DoE app or brochures. Cayman Islands DoE · Marine Parks
• Wildlife Interaction Zones are the only places in the Cayman Islands where you may legally feed or interact with marine life. Cayman Islands DoE · Marine Manners

GBIF.org (2026-10-15), CC0 and CC BY 4.0 records within about 1 km of these 12 sites (22,953 records). Counts reflect survey effort, not abundance.

Official forecasts first. The nearest NOAA buoy is far offshore, so use it for the regional picture only.
