Ghost Mountain

in North West, Grand Cayman

Scuba Diving Videos

Depth: 75.0^FT coordinates: 19.4023, -81.38568

An outflow from the north sound provides nutrients making the site intensely rich. As you swim through the cloudy water surrounding the mountain, its looming slopes gradually appear. The top of the mountain sitting in 50 feet of water is covered in beautiful sponge life while the side offers fields of horizontal gorgonian fans. The bottom descends to nearly 200 feet making it inadvisable to corkscrew too deeply around the pinnacle.

probably the best dive i've ever do...

I did this site back in 2007 with some friends that live on the island. I'ts to far to swim from shore so you need to take a boat. Well worth it though. I hear it's covered in lionfish now. I think it's more of an advanced level dive, it was deep and there was a strong current. The pinnacle it's self is very healthy with loads of gorgionans and sponges.

Spectacular!

Amazing dive! Swim a short distance from the wall to the pinnacle, swim around the pinnacle looking underneath the overhangs. Really breathtaking.

Favorite Grand Cayman dive site to ...

This is a really special dive - the weather doesn't always allow for you to make it there but if you can - GO. You will be in awe of what you will see with every turn as you circle the "mountain". I recall ascending with great sadness, didn't want this dive to end.

Dramatic!

WOW! This one is a must see. The video dosen't do it justice..."sorry idive":-) It's a very deep site and I remember not wanting to go up to my safety stop. When I was there we saw like 10 million silversides.
