This is my fifth trip to the Cayman and I have dove with Cayman Marine every time. I wouldn't think of going anywhere else. Tom is a lot of fun to hang out on the boat with and takes you out for great dives. Being a marine biologist, he can answer your questions and point out really unique things. It's... More

Extremely enjoyable. Tom is very entertaining and helpful. His knowledge of the Cayman diving scene (25 years) is excellent. You will laugh and learn during the surface interval. More

I made another dive trip from 3/29-4/4 and it was one of the best ever. Tom was great as usual and has added his son Danny as a divemaster. All of our dives were on the north wall. The fish and critter life was what I remenber from many years ago. Turtles, rays, an abundance of reef fish and numerous... More

Tom has certified over 30 members of our family and friends. These are young divers like my 17 year old son and old fah-ts like my 60+ year old brother. He teaches you the right way to do it while enjoying the awesome beauty of the Cayman reefs. Small boat dives, a wealth of marine biology and diving knowledge combined... More

Been diving with Tom for 6-7 years now and when Im visiting the Caymans, I am not calling anyone else. This is definatley the high light of vacation each year. Being in the water with him just makes you feel safe. My daughter got certified this year and he pretty much held her hand making sure she was comfortable and... More

I have been diving with Tom for over 6 years and have yet to have a bad experience. This year he took us on the most advanced dives I have ever been on, and by far the most amazing, Drift dives. His experience and knowledge of local currents is superb. It allows you to see underwater sections of the Cayman... More

A very long overdue review of our dive experience with cayman marine lab. Neither my boyfriend or I were certified. I had gone once before 8 years ago and my boyfriend had never gone. Tom tought us how to do it in very little time and before we knew it, we were under the sea. We had such an amazing... More

I have been diving for 8 years, since I was 16. Myself and my family ONLY dive with Tom when vacationing on Grand Cayman. His wealth of knowledge of marine life, ecosystem, dive locations, safety, and his famous humor makes diving in Cayman the best quality experience you could ask for. PS: He does private charters for $1,000,000US. More

A definite highlight of our recent trip to Grand Cayman was diving with Tom Byrnes and Cayman Marine Lab...This is my third year diving with CML and as expected, the experience was wonderful. Tom runs a great dive operation, and his son Danny does a fine job helping him with it. Tom is an excellent divemaster, who provides excellent dive... More
