Location:
28 miles southeast of Porlamar.
Cubagua was the site of first European settlement in South America in 1493, the fishing town of Nueva Cadiz beads. The city was finally destroyed by a giant wave and abandoned in 1541. Today the barren island is home to only a few itinerant fishing camps. Charagato Bay on the north side of the island is a great place to dive, figuratively and literally.

Through the influence of a ditch near the ocean, the bay water is retained in the upper 60 to 70 years low throughout the year and even oysters can be found here. Ruins of the past can be found on the eastern side.

Diving:
Some remains of interest are marked by the tip of a ferry above water. The ferry sank in the 1970s under suspicious circumstances and resting on a slope of sand, the stern under 45 feet of water. A rescue mission went wrong and trying to lift tug also lowered, stopping a few yards to starboard in cold water, greenish. What really makes the immersion interesting is the diversity and abundance of fish. Massive schools of grunts, grouper and simple backdrop, even trumpet become alien species as the red flag Benny, Old (a kind of bass is found only in South America) and to a lesser electric rays hidden in the sand.
