Explore Eastern Cuba

Diving on the Eastern part of the island of Cuba means, most likely, diving from the town of Guardalavaca, a resort town located on the north eastern coast, with its sandy beaches bordering the North Atlantic Ocean. Diving from here is mostly done by boats from the local dive centres and dive resorts. Whether divers are hoping to do dive courses and gain new skills, whether they are hoping to dive into the darkness during a night dive or whether they want to capture some of the many marine species here on camera, the conditions here make all of these options very feasible. The visibility here ranges between 20 and 40 metres on average. Between November and April is the dry season, which is also the time of the year with the best, calmest and warmest water conditions. The average water temperature here is 25 degrees Celsius with it ranging between 23 degrees and 29 degrees Celsius throughout the year. Some things divers are bound to experience while underwater here include some thrilling coral walls, uniquely shaped corals, an abundance of Sea Sponges, Crustaceans, Barracuda’s, Octopus and a large collection of smaller, but vibrantly coloured reef fish.
