Cuba has a vast and beautiful coastline and is untouched by mass tourism.
Maria la Gorda is located at the western tip of the island – which is the
same size of the UK. The resort is remote and tranquil and boasts crystal clear,
warm water with pristine coral.
If you’ve never dived in the Caribbean before it’s a great introduction and
better value for money than many other islands.
Cost includes flights, transfers, 6 nights full board and 1 night B&B in Havana and 5 days diving.
