LAS VILLAS

Las Villas isn't deep, we're talking a breezy 4 metres, but don’t let that fool you. This isn’t a quick splash-and-dash; it's a genuine wreck dive. She went down in '85, a Cuban carrier, and now she’s a proper playground. We love how much of her is still intact, stretched out there at 101 metres. You can swim right through the cargo holds, poke around the superstructure, and even peer into the bridge area. It feels like you’re exploring a sunken ghost ship, not just a pile of rubble. Our favourite part is the way the light filters down into the holds, illuminating the schools of snapper and grunts that hang out inside. Look closely and you’ll spot moray eels tucked into every crevice, plus the occasional barracuda patrolling the deck. The ship's massive size means you can spend a whole dive just exploring one section. It’s ideal for newer wreck divers or anyone who appreciates a relaxed, clear-water exploration with a bit of history thrown in. The currents are usually mild here, making it a very comfortable dive.
