Kittiwake, Grand Cayman

It took years of planning, but the long-awaited sinking of the USS Kittiwake finally happened jan. 5, with the 251-foot-long submarine rescue ship coming to rest off Grand Cayman’s Seven Mile Beach in just 60 feet of water. located near the Sand Chute dive site at the northern end of the beach, the Kittiwake’s mast reaches to about 5 feet below the surface, making the wreck easily accessible for both divers and snorkelers.
