Bay of Pigs

No reviews yetCuba, Caribbean

Decent size parking lot with room to get dressed (watch out for crabs). Ladder entry or giant stride in. SCUBA Cuba insists that you dive with a dive master they won't allow you to dive without one. We took a trip from Veradero to the Bay via coach. A two hour trip, traveling through several towns, no stops. Return trip was annoying as the bus was filled with flies from the thousands of dead crabs on the road and beach.
