Snorkeling in Cayo Santa Maria
 

If you love snorkeling, unfortunately there are few places to do so from the beach at Cayo Santa Maria.

However, there are beautiful fishes and corals located at the west end of the island. There is a tiny coral island. It is imperative to bring your palms, as it is about  180 meters from the beach.

There are also some  clumps of corals located west of the Sol (the area near the naturist beach). At this point, you can do a snorkel without fins, because corals are near the beach. As the area is located west of the beach of Sol, it is possible to snorkel « Au Naturel ».

The catamaran trip includes one or two dives (snorkel). Visit the  Excursions section to learn more. In 2002, the tour took us on a catamaran near Playa Megano at Cayo Ensenachos. There was a wreck with several species of fish, some impressive in size.

For years, we are taking underwater photos and share them on the net as we love the marine world. With hundreds of files in several places, it became tedious for visitors to our websites to access all our photos and video.

In 2008, we put online a website dedicated exclusively to the marine world. It includes fishes, corals and other specimens photographed and information on our digital underwater cameras and other stuff. A tribute to the wonderful colorful world and diverse, but yet so fragile.

For those who wish to be informed of updates, we have a mailing list you may register to, see the index page of our  destilino.com website (presently in French only).
