Why dive here
With 139+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, orcas, sea turtles, sperm whales and pufferfish - SAN ANTONIO offers some of Isla de la Juventud's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 26-30°C, warmest July, August, September.
The San Antonio is a well-broken wreck, sitting upright at 18 metres on a sandy seabed. Its size, nearly 65 metres, means there’s plenty of structure to explore, with a good chance of finding schooling snapper and various groupers around the deeper sections. We’ve also seen nurse sharks tucked into the larger compartments. It’s an easy dive, good for new wreck divers looking for a straightforward penetration or those just enjoying the resident fish life.
