Yachting in Cuba

The luxury yacht LIA-A, for weekly or long weekend trips , was built by the renowned Baglietto shipyard. Her hull design is taken from of a series of fast naval patrol boats for the Italian Navy by the same shipyard.

LIA-A therefore combines the strength and integrity of a naval vessel at sea with the comfort and luxury of a modern yacht.

Diving and jet ski-fun on the LIA-A has it's own definition. With a modern crane, electrically powered, the jets get lowered into the water and from the hydraulic platform our guests will board them. This platform actually is designed to take the divers in and out the water in a comfortable way, they probably never experienced before.

We can offer u 5 fixed routes... including non-limit diving for 8 persons jetski, waterski, cayak...! or just go wherever u want...
