Hi. We're going to Grand Cayman for the first time in June 2004. We'll have 4 in our group: 17 year old, 12 year old and parents. We know we want to stay on 7 Mile Beach. I'm torn between booking at The Beachcomber which looks to be in the center of activity versus booking farther north up at Discovery Point. Sounds like the snorkeling is better the further North you go on 7 Mile Beach, correct? Any insights you can share would be appreciated!

discovery point is too north. the beach is quite rocky. you will do much better around the london house vicinity. don't know much about the beachcomber... looks a bit dated. for central smb location try lacovia. there's a great site for locations: caymanvacations.com

...they have photos and beach ratings.
