Bonnie's Arch is a lovely dive site located off the northwestern tip of Grand Cayman. It features an arch, a mini wall, and a cavern. The name comes from photographer Bonnie Charles, who disappeared in the area years ago.
At the base of the 6-meter-tall archway, there’s a variety of tube and barrel sponges. Marine life is abundant here; you can spot Nassau groupers, spiny lobsters, tarpon, mutton snappers, French angelfish, grey angelfish, trumpetfish, cleaning wrasses, sergeant majors, barracudas, cleaner shrimps, crabs, and more.
The arch is just 152 meters/500 feet from the shore. There is a permanent two-pin mooring buoy here that provides easy access to the site by boat. Strong currents are frequent in this area, but they help maintain the quality of the reef.
To the east, the site is dominated by a 7-meter/25-foot-tall mini wall that runs parallel to the shore. The wall drops from a plateau situated at a depth of 13 meters/45 feet down to the seabed at about 21 meters/70 feet.
Because of the strong currents, Bonnie’s Arch is recommended for experienced divers. Diving is possible all year round and visibility is excellent.
