Cuba | Sea Turtles, Coral Reefs, and Culture
Get to know Cuba’s wild side through snorkeling or scuba diving, observing nesting sea turtles, bird watching, and more.
Embrace Cuban culture with tours of historic Havana, live jazz performances, authentic Cuban food, and visits to museums and markets.
Meet and learn from Cuban marine biologists and conservationists throughout our expedition.
We are delighted to invite you on this unique exploration of Cuba’s natural side in partnership with SEE Turtles, Cuba Marine Research & Conservation Program, and AltruVistas. While Cuba is well known for its cultural highlights, the country’s amazing natural beauty and conservation ethic are under-appreciated. Our trip will allow you to see and experience Cuba’s natural beauty first-hand, while also providing opportunities to fully enjoy Cuba’s rich cultural heritage.
We will travel to Guanahacabibes National Park, the island’s westernmost point, to look for nesting green and loggerhead sea turtles as well as endemic birds, and to swim, snorkel, or scuba dive at some of Cuba’s best coral reefs. You’ll also meet local scientists, explore fascinating Havana, and visit the countryside of the Viñales Valley in Pinar del Río, Cuba’s most fertile province. This is a highly educational program thanks to our outstanding English-speaking guides who provide interpretation throughout the program, as well informative presentations by Cuban scholars from a variety of relevant disciplines.
This trip is open to American citizens through a “People to People” license given by the U.S. State Department to our partners.
