As part of the structural design process for the new Cayman Diving Lodge we needed to excavate several trail holes to determine the depth level of the bedrock. The Cayman Diving Lodge site is blessed with tons and tons of powder like white sand of 10 feet thick, even as much as 16 feet thick in some places. Beneath this lays a solid layer of bedrock, or what is locally call ‘Hard-pan’. The foundation for the Cayman Diving Lodge will sit directly on to this hard-pan and create a structure that is engineered and tied in to mother earth herself.   Anyone buying a Condominium can rest assured that the new buildings will be ’solid as a rock’.

There was also the slim chance of us digging up a chest full of gold - with Cayman’s history of Pirates and their known visits to East End…. who knows what we might have found (or did find)!
