It
is little wonder that the beautiful Cayman Islands is home to the
International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame. Synonymous with world class
scuba diving, the Cayman Islands boasts some of the greatest underwater
diversity anywhere in the world: deep, dramatic walls adorned with
sponges and corals in a stunning array of colours; shallow reefs filled
with schooling fish and small invertebrates; an assortment of wrecks;
world famous Bloody Bay Wall and the legendary Stingray City, the
world’s best 12-foot dive.
The
International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame was designed to honour
individuals whose contribution to the sport of scuba diving has been
immeasurable. Coming from diverse backgrounds and fields, all inductees
possess a track record of offerings to the development, growth and/or
promotion of the sport of recreational scuba diving around the world.
The honour bestowed upon them commemorates the achievements and
contributions of the champions of diving.
Each year the Cayman Islands hosts the annual Dinner and Induction
Ceremony, where the pioneers, artists and entrepreneurs are presented
with prestigious awards for their outstanding contributions to the
sport.
The Diving Hall of Fame Board of Directors oversees the Diving Hall of
Fame project. These Board Members are internationally recognized
individuals who have contributed to the sport, are actively involved in
the scuba diving industry, and are individual leaders of their local
dive community.

dive. The Cayman walls are spectacularly beautiful with brightly coloured corals
and sponges, aquatic life including eagle rays, turtles, tarpon, nurse sharks
