Onto the Snorkeling Adventure!
Onto the Snorkeling Adventure!

Snorkeling in Cueva de los Peces This beautiful spot is the perfect place to ease into snorkeling – its gorgeous sparkling waters are perfect for swimmers!

The Cueva de los Peces is a 70m depression created by a tectonic fault. If you’re a diver, you can brave the deeper underwater worlds to spot sea life, but most people prefer to enjoy the warm waters and spot tropical fish. When it’s time for a break, relax in the hammocks swinging lazily around the pool and take in the beautiful Cuba weather.

This is the quintessential beach vacation – with wildlife!

good job

It is a great experience to come to this natural paradise. Zapata National Park is located near to the Bay of Pigs in Matanzas province. This swamp is an amazing wilderness and one of the most important natural areas in Cuba
