Anchor Point

Anchor Point is a wall site on the East End of Grand Cayman, off Queen's Highway, in front of Barefoot Beach. Barefoot Beach is a rare low-lying beach on the northeastern coastline. The site takes its name from old maritime charts that marked this partially sheltered cove as an ideal anchorage during the early settlement of the Cayman Islands.

The mooring pin sits at 58 ft (18 m) and the maximum depth is 100 ft (30.5 m). It is about a 30 minute boat ride from the dock.

The dive begins with a swim-through that leads directly onto the wall. Its roof is a gradually narrowing cone with a crack at the top, so light stays inside the whole way and it is comfortable for divers who dislike darkness. Look up for sea plumes as you pass through, which look like snow-covered fir trees.
