Cuba: Cayo Largo & Jardines de la Reina

13 posts
  1. Hello

     

    It has given me time to process some of the images taken in the second trip Cuba this year. Place me where I marveled at the conditions as good and proper to practice diving. Not afraid to make mistakes I am sure that in Cuba there are the best dive sites around the Caribbean. Cayo Largo is a tourist area almost without exploiting to diving. Avalon has provided some cozy log cabins with great detail. There is surprising to see the abundance of schools of fish, spotted eagle, different species of sharks, rays, groupers, etc.. But especially the coral is in very good condition. And on Jardines de la Reina.. what can you say? For me deserve to be among the top ten diving destination in the world. In Jardines de la Reina anything can happen. Since see a crossing of a crocodile fell to another in open water, until end dives surrounded by sharks. In Jardines de la Reina are many places for discover and actually going to recognize new areas of diving are part of its charm.

     

    A hug and wish you enjoy it.

     

    PD I am sorry for my poor English

  2. Great compositions and lighting of common subjects; thanks Carlos.

  3. What are the lobsters doing? Mating in a chain ? :) Life in the sea, is a life full of surprise...

  4. Hi Carlos,

     

    Thanks for sharing your images. Great photos, with a superb lighting... I think I've seen some of them in some other place, I'm I right? :)

     

    Regards,

    P.S: I saw somewhere that lobsters migrate in such a chain. Perhaps is that what they are doing...

  5. Hi Carlos,

    Thanks for sharing. On the lobsters, where do you think the Conga line came from? :)

  6. Beautiful images Carlos - !Que suerte!

     

     

     

    The tropical lobsters are on a migration - they all join up like that when they want to move over areas where there is little protection from predators. They can form very long conga lines! Interestingly this makes them very vulnerable to being caught in trawlers nets when they are migrating from one reef to the next.

  7. Very nice images my friend. I really liked the shot of the lobster crawl, which in this day an age is an increasingly rare thing to witness.

    Would you consider sharing your adventure in Cuba in a story for the Underwater Journal?
