Divetech takes Innerspace to Little Cayman
Divetech is offering something special for their rebreather event, Innerspace 2019: the deep walls of Little Cayman’s Bloody Bay Wall
Next year Divetech is hosting Innerspace, its annual celebration of rebreathers, on Little Cayman at the Little Cayman Beach Resort. Divetech owner Jo Mikutowicz decided to expand the Innerspace silent diving experience beyond Grand Cayman, to the sheer and pristine drop-offs of Bloody Bay Marine Park, renowned for its incredible walls. Rebreather technology allows users to dive deeper and stay underwater longer, so attendees will be among the few to fully explore Little Cayman’s deep walls.
The event is scheduled May 18 – 25, 2019 and Mikutowicz says space is limited, so she is urging early registration.
Innerspace was launched in 2004 to bring rebreather community together from around the world to keep up with the fast-changing technical diving industry. What began with 19 rebreather divers has grown into a sellout annual event where divers passionately immerse themselves in the silent diving culture of rebreathers for a week. Innerspace attracts the biggest names in the dive business and the week’s events include lectures, new research and technologies, equipment tryouts, demonstrations and social events.
“Over the past 15 years, our Innerspace divers have explored the beautiful deep walls of Grand Cayman, so we decided to offer them something new to explore – Little Cayman’s Bloody Bay Wall,” said Mikutowicz. “It means more organization and logistics on our part, but we are excited about taking the event ‘on the road.”

Over the next 12 months, specialist scuba holiday company Dive Worldwide will be supporting Bite-Back Shark & Marine Conservation with donations collected from client bookings to any one of its stunning dive destinations around the world. The independently-owned operator expects to raise £3000 for the UK charity.
Manager at Dive Worldwide, Phil North, said: “We’re especially excited to work with Bite-Back and support its intelligent, creative and results-driven campaigns to end the UK trade in shark products and prompt a change in attitudes to the ocean’s most maligned inhabitant.”
Bite-Back is running campaigns to hold the media to account on the way it reports shark news along with a brand new nationwide education programme. Last year the charity was credited for spearheading a UK ban on the import and export of shark fins.
Campaign director at Bite-Back, Graham Buckingham, said: “We’re enormously grateful to Dive Worldwide for choosing to support Bite-Back. The company’s commitment to conservation helps set it apart from other tour operators and we’re certain its clients admire and respect that policy. For us, the affiliation is huge and helps us look to the future with confidence we can deliver against key conservation programmes.”
To launch the fundraising initiative, Phil North presented Graham Buckingham with a cheque for £1,000.
