Club Náutico - Jardines de la Reina

Club Náutico is one of those reliable Jardines sites where you can just relax and enjoy the show. We’ve often found a good mix of Caribbean reef sharks here, cruising slowly in the blue, alongside plenty of snapper and grunt gathered near the reef. It’s a pretty easygoing dive, good for getting comfortable in the water and observing typical Cuban reef activity without too much effort.
