Cuban nature enjoys on a wide range of astonishing features. Some of these are still untouched by civilization and some others have been developed for the joy of tourists. Cayo Coco is one of those favored by nature places that have become one of the main destinations for holidaymakers in Cuba.

Cayo Coco is a 370 squared kilometer island located 17 kilometers off the north coast of Ciego de Avila province. The island has its own airport which makes it ideal for beach hunters who can not be bother with the nuisance of having to travel long distances.

If you come by road from any other city in Cuba you will be able to enjoy a very nice drive along the Pedraplén (the way Cubans call these roadways over the sea).It is made of stones and land, with few bridges along the way in order to protect the ecosystems in the area.

In Cayo Coco, around 15,000 species of pink flamingos live in shallow lagoons, perfect sights for taking pictures. In the area dwell 200 species of birds and 340 of flora.

You can count on nice temperatures (28 Celsius Average) throughout most of the year. Its beaches are famous for its low water levels. You can walk 100’s of meters to get to the deep and yet the water only reaches your ankles. There are very well preserved coral reefs which offer excellent entertainment for snorkeling and diving lovers.

Surrounding Cayo Coco, you can find Cayo Guillermo, Paredón Grande and other islets that belong to the Sabana-Camagüey Archipelago formed by more than 2,000 islets all along 465 kilometers, between the Hicacos Peninsula and the Bahía de Nuevitas (Cuban eastern part).

Authorities in the Island anticipate 33 thousand potential hotel rooms and there is currently a third of that amount functioning. This is one of the most demanded places by the foreign visitor, due to the possibility of combining a rest with all modern capabilities and, at the same time, diving, trekking, nature watching, and other active modalities in an almost pristine land.
