A natural paradise filled with myths and legends of pirate ships and Spanish galleons sunk along its coasts. The natural wealth and others deposited there are only but a part of its treasures. Give yourself a special treat by exploring this beautiful, silent world.

The Puertosol María La Gorda International Scuba-Diving Center is on the Southern coast of the most Western tip of the Cuban archipelago, at Corrientes Cape on the Guanahacabibes Peninsula, Pinar del Río Province, 300 kilometers (186 miles) from Havana.

UNESCO has declared the area to be a reserve of the biosphere. The fantastic scenery and the seabed- rich in marine species, with coral reefs of impressive beauty- make this an ideal place for both scuba diving and ecological turism.

Valle de Coral Negro, with coral walls more than 100 meters long and Salón de María, a cave 18 meters deep with plumule coral, are musts adjoining areas where the concentrations of fish during the migratory seasons are truly impressive.

The Puertosol María La Gorda International Scuba Diving Center is also an excellent place to drop anchor for all yachtsmen coming from the Yucatán Channel, the Gulf of Mexico and the Western Caribbean.
