Dive Course and Rates

Technical
groups and charters are always welcome. We have flexible packages that can be booked
for any number of days to match your travel plans -- or a popular diving itinerary, start out with a recreational dive as a check out dive, add on a couple of technical dives and finish off by off-gassing with another favorite -- Stingray City! Since we
opened, we have been exploring some of the most spectacular
dive sites around the island. Ten Ata, Divetechs custom
built 34 v-hull dive boat is set up to accommodate technical
charters to Caymans sponge belt (260 fsw) and deep walls and wrecks,
including decompression station and castaway deco station. Supporting all closed circuit rebreathers, twin tanks and deco racks, 120 cubic feet of O2 and your customer blends -- be sure to file a dive plan and we'll take care of your gas needs. To optimize the group's experience, please keep it to 8 divers
max.
Instructors and dive shops are welcome to bring students
to Divetech to complete their training dives. With shore diving
as an easy option at Turtle Reef, hours are easy and flexible;
no boat charter fees, just pay for the gases and any rentals
required. Our shop is open to you. We have PCs on site
with all of the latest decompression software to run profiles
including Abyss, voyager and ProPlanner.
Equipment rentals are available:
Inspiration, Evolution, KISS CCR, Dive Rite and ScubaPro wings, harnesses and
backplates, ScubaPro regulators, bottom timers, computers,
lift bags, reels, lights and tanks including twin 80 or 100
cubic feet with isolation manifolds, and 30, 40, 63 and 80
cubic feet deco cylinders for sidemounts.
Divetech, the island's only technical dive shop, can offer
some superb technical diving in Grand Cayman. We run daily technical
dives at various levels to allow divers to explore the walls
of Cayman. A mix of some daily boat technical dives at various
levels to allow divers to explore the walls of Cayman. A mix
of some boat and some shore diving can make a very economical
package with lots of great diving.
Packages are flexible; you can book for any number of days.
Day one we normally do a check in dive, one level below your
highest certification level, just to get everyone in the water,
equipment checks, and increase our comfort levels to go exploring.
At Divetech we like long bottom times, running all profiles
on gas management planning with thirds.

Dive Sites on the island for Technical divers are numerous
and many dives are exploratory to see new walls and sites.
The Carrie Lee Wreck is always a favorite, Nancys Chute,
Dans Donut, Funky Town, the Chimney and many other wall sites with
chutes, swim through pipes and overhangs abounding, the deep
sponge belt being a favorite of all.
