Cave Diving

NAGUA
El Dudu / Cueva de Lily / Pozo de los Caballo. Two freshwater lakes are the starting points to a cave system with several tunnels, together around 700m long. During the dive to a maximum depth of 22 m (72 ft) the diver will see a bizarre world of stalactites and stalagmites, fossils, crabs and shrimp.

MACAO
The Macao Cave is only 30 minutes from Bávaro, and is a perfect place to take the first step to cave diving. Crystal clear spring water and the clarity of the system make it easy to dive in the new environment.

PUNTA CANA
Laguna Pepe – The dive starts in the green water of the lagoon and continues, after a few meters, into the clear blue of the cave. A cave with a unique “Lightshow”.

BAYAHIBE
National Park of the East. Padre Nuestro Cave - One main tunnel with a length of 300m and a cathedral at the end describes this fantastic cave. The dive’s maximum depth is 15m (50 ft). Chicho Cave - A very spacious cave system. Silt covers huge areas of the bottom. Only for very experienced divers with excellent buoyancy.

SANTO DOMINGO
Cueva Taina, one of the best caves of the Dominican Republic, offers a lot of variety. Tunnels, junctions, narrowing and a depth to 48 m (158 ft) are ideal for the training for all levels of cave diving classes.

PEDERNALES
Asfalto /Trou Nicolas/ La Piscina /La Hícotea /Palo de Luz are only some of countless caves close to the border with Haiti. Trips to that area are expeditionary in character.

The Astron (freighter) and the Monica (railway cargo) are in front of the hotels of Bávaro / Punta Cana. So it’s only a short boat ride to a nice wreck dive.

BAYAHIBE
Saint George Wreck - One of the best wreck dives of the island. With a length of 80 m (260 ft) and at a depth of 40m (130 ft) it’s developing into an artificial reef which attracts all kinds of fish.

Wreck Tanya V - A good place to swim with barracuda, tuna and mackerel at 35 m (115 ft).
