About this site
Dragon's Lair lies along the coast of Grand Cayman, part of the string of reef sites along the island's fringing reef and drop-off. It reaches a maximum depth of around 18.3 metres, keeping the dive within the reef structure rather than dropping onto the wall itself. Sites in this stretch are typically reached by short boat trips from operators based on Grand Cayman.
