Andes Wall is one of those great North End wall. If you are trying to get to Babylon from the West side and the dive boat operator can not take you there, see if he will go to Andes Wall. This site is great as a deep dive or a shallow dive, but try to go for the deep dive.

Many times you will see multiple Spotted Eagle Rays swimming along the wall. Four, six or even eight rays together is not uncommon. Typical fish from angels, parrot, damsel, grouper, snapper, trumpet, etc. The coral is extremely healthy and vibrant. Lots of sheet coral, soft coral, sea whips, and fans. You may also find sharks in this area with many sitings of tiger, hammerhead, nurse and reef sharks.

This is one of my favorite sites in Grand Cayman and though it is a bit of a trip from the west side it is well worth the trip.
