other destinations.

2 Underwater visibility can reach 50 meters from

November to May. In summer it decreases to
a range of 15-20 meters, but it is also very
favorable for enjoying underwater landscapes and
contemplative diving.

3 During the winter season, the southern

coast of Cuba remains calm in the face of
cold fronts coming from North America. This
advantage is used by numerous facilities such as
those located in Ancón, Faro Luna, Cayo Largo del
Sur or Playa Girón.

5 Diving in Cuba is very safe and the facilities

that organize the dives accumulate more
than 15 years of experience. Instructors with
international certification and knowledge of several
languages always accompany the expeditions,
whether they are experienced divers or beginners.

There are more than 500 well-studied dive sites
in the Cuban archipelago. The 1,500 recorded
marine species, more than 50 corals, 200 types
of sponges and the numerous schools of tropical
fish are the attractions that await those who love
underwater life.
