Banes is a small coastal town in eastern Cuba near Holguín. While not a major international dive hub, the area offers access to local Caribbean dives along the coast and nearby cays. With one local dive center and a limited number of nearby dive sites, it’s suitable for day trips and on-site training for nearby residents or travelers basing in Holguín. Expect generally warm water, modest visibility, and typical Caribbean reef life at accessible sites.
