Description:

SCUBA DIVING IN SANTA LUCÍA BEACH – DIVE INTO A MARINE PARADISE: Welcome to Santa Lucía, one of Cuba’s most breathtaking beach destinations and a true underwater paradise for diving enthusiasts. Located on the northern coast of Camagüey, this stunning beach stretches for more than 20 kilometers of powdery white sand and is surrounded by the second-longest coral reef in the world, making it an ideal place for both beginners and experienced divers. Just a few meters from the coast, an incredible underwater world awaits — vibrant coral gardens, colorful tropical fish, sea fans, sponges, and fascinating marine species that will leave you amazed. The calm, crystal-clear waters offer excellent visibility, often exceeding 30 meters (100 feet), allowing you to fully appreciate the beauty of the seabed.

Santa Lucía’s diving area offers more than 30 different dive sites, each with its own charm and level of adventure. You’ll explore: Coral walls and tunnels that seem to come alive with color and movement, Sunken ships, now covered with coral and inhabited by thousands of marine creatures, Natural caverns and passages, home to lobsters, moray eels, and bright reef fish and, for the more daring, the world-famous Bull Shark dive, a truly unique and thrilling experience (optional). The underwater ecosystem here is a living painting — imagine swimming among schools of parrotfish, angelfish, barracudas, rays, and even the occasional sea turtle gliding through the clear Caribbean waters. Between dives, enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of Santa Lucía Beach, known for its friendly locals, tropical rhythm, and postcard-perfect landscapes. It’s the perfect combination of adventure, tranquility, and natural beauty.
