Bloody Bay, Little Cayman, Ilhas Cayman
Marilyn's Cut is one of the signature dives of the Bloody Bay Wall Marine Park on Little Cayman, named for a deep cut or notch carved into the wall face by ancient reef erosion. The site is dived from a mooring on the reef plateau in roughly 8 metres, with the wall lip starting at 6 to 8 metres and dropping vertically beyond 1,800 metres into the deep Caribbean. Divers swim along the wall to enter the cut between 18 and 24 metres, where towering walls on three sides are coated in giant orange elephant-ear sponges, barrel sponges, deepwater sea fans, black coral, sheet corals, rope sponges and yellow tube sponges. The site became famous for a resident Nassau grouper named 'Jerry' (a local mascot for years) and continues to host Nassau grouper, midnight parrotfish, hawksbill turtles, green turtles, eagle rays, Caribbean reef sharks, queen angelfish, French angelfish, schools of horse-eye jacks, and Creole wrasse. The Bloody Bay Wall is one of the cleanest, most pristine wall systems in the Caribbean, with visibility commonly exceeding 30 metres year-round in the protected Marine Park. Best December to May.
