Diving in Cuba

[Islandrat]

Hello there!
I had a terrible year and I'm planning on taking some days off to Cuba. Would like to dive (of course), relax on the beach, meet some nice people, share a drink with diving buddies, etc. Where would you advise me to go (resort, diveing sites, cafes, etc. in Cuba).

Thanks!!!
Islandrat

We go to Sierra Mar in Santiago de Cuba, Excellent diving and great staff, Once you go you will most likely return every year like we do and others that have been. If you are going for the diving then Santiago have some excellent reefs, they also have the wrecks from the Spanish / American war which Mike Flecher / did a special on the Sea Hunters called the Lost Fleet of Santiago These wrecks are still in good condition and the history of them is pretty interesting. do some research on the area. day trips to Santiago de Cuba to tour the fort del Morro which protected the Harbour from Pirates when Santiago de Cuba was the Capital before Havana. It doesn't matter where you go in Cuba you will find the people are excellent and will make your stay memorable.

I'll be diving in Cuba very soon too (in Feb.2009). I'm staying in Cayo Largo, in the south part of the islande. Some friends have been there and I was told it's a really good spot for diving.

Anyways, you may want to take a look at "www dot tripadivsor dot com" - you can get lots of reviews about hotels and activities (including diving, of course!).
