Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Amphitrite
AMPHITRITE is a bronze (I think!) mermaid approx 10 ft. tall and I believe she is by a Canadian artist. She is in approx 50 ft. not far from the wreck of David Nicholson. For more info, you can visit their site at Sunsethouse.com

Go to sunset House Hotel in Georgetown, Grand Cayman. Giant stride off the concrete walkway and you are in 15 feet of surge. Head 150 degrees until you hit 50 feet depth and there you will find Simon Morris's 9 ft cast bronze sculpture of the most beautiful mermaid, Amphitrite. The reef is bashed from beginner divers, those taking courses, and much use, but still plenty of marine life. Very crowded!!! With rescue courses tying people to the mermaid, navigation courses, photography courses, open water courses. The exit was a few short steps up the ladder and a freshwater rinse off. Easy, pretty, way too busy but the mermaid was a joy to behold with all the angel fish surrounding her head. After Amphitrite, the best part was the apres dive beer at My Bar a few steps from the shore.
