Dive-site story
Located along the eastern coast of the Bay of Pigs, Punta Perdiz features direct shore access through dedicated access steps cut into the rocky limestone shelf. A sandy channel bordered by coral heads leads outward to a sloping reef structure that eventually gives way to a steep wall drop-off into deeper Caribbean water. The site also features a small sunken vessel resting on the sandbed, attracting schooling reef fish and macro life.
Steep wall drop-off adorned with massive barrel sponges and deep-water sea fans
Easily accessible small wreck resting in the sand just off the main reef line
Sheltered bay conditions that typically provide minimal water movement and calm entries
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
