The Cayman Islands are preparing to welcome divers, ocean lovers, and industry professionals for the 2025 International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame (ISDHF) Induction Ceremony, taking place September 20, 2025 in Grand Cayman.

 

Founded in 2000 by the Cayman Islands Ministry of Tourism, the ISDHF celebrates the pioneers, innovators, and environmental champions whose contributions have helped shape scuba diving into the global sport, business, and research tool it is today.

Grand Cayman is recognized as one of the world’s premier diving destinations — with more than 240 accessible dive sites, warm, crystal-clear waters, and spectacular wall dives shaped by the Cayman Trench. The island’s strong commitment to marine conservation makes it a fitting host for this prestigious event.
