About This Spot
Oasis is a sheltered lagoon system located on Cuba's northern coast, characterized by shallow turquoise waters separated from the Caribbean Sea by developed shoreline and canal infrastructure. The spot consists of protected lagoon basins with sandy/muddy bottom and artificial waterway channels integrating residential areas. The east-facing coastline creates side-shore conditions from northerly winds. This is a beginner-friendly location due to calm, contained waters and minimal swell exposure, making it suitable for progression and light wind days. Wind reliability of 10.4% and average 8-knot winds suggest this spot functions primarily during seasonal wind events rather than consistent conditions. The shallow lagoon environment demands awareness of depth variations and navigation around developed infrastructure. Water temperatures averaging 26.3°C are warm year-round. The spot is best suited for light-wind practice and beginner skill levels seeking protected conditions away from ocean swell and strong currents.
