Orange Canyon is a fresh water dive site, located in Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands. This dive site has an average rating of 4.40 out of 5 from 5 scuba divers.

Named for the big orange elephant ear sponges that compete for your attention with the vast webs of deepwater gorgonians and meaty barrel sponges. A deeper site not recommended for beginners, Orange Canyon is also a good spot to eyeball pelagics like blacktip and Caribbean reef sharks.

Simply a must-dive site. Remember your red filter for the camera and be ready to take a hundred pics. Some current as you round the canyon over the massive drop but you’ll barely notice because of the wonderful sea life.

Outstanding dive. 100+ visibility at 100ft. If you Get the chance, I highly recommend going with Off the Wall Divers. Kelly is a very knowlegeable dive-master and made it awesome!
