Why dive here
With 250+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, humpback whales, nurse sharks, orcas and sea turtles - Paradise offers some of Punta Cana's richest diving. Water ranges 27-30°C, warmest September, October, November.
Paradise in Punta Cana gives you a gentle drift over a sandy bottom, dotted with small coral formations. We’ve spotted nurse sharks tucked under ledges and plenty of schooling snapper out in the open. It’s a pretty mellow dive, good for getting back into things or for newer divers looking for calm conditions and a chance to spot some larger fish.
