Beaches

**One of the most beautiful beaches in Cuba in Cayo CoCo. Located in the middle of Cuba’s north coast, Cayo Coco is one of the largest cays, or small islands, found in the Jardines del Rey archipelago. A stone road causeway is all that links Cayo Coco Cuba to the mainland, and once you get there, you can enjoy a relaxed and somewhat isolated feel. Cayo Coco has been becoming increasingly popular among tourists since the 1990's. In fact, before the causeway that links Cayo Coco to the mainland was constructed, the cays found here went largely unrecognized. Now, some of the best resorts in Cuba can be found in this area.**

 * A little information about Cayo Coo can make a big difference in helping you better understand this stretch of cays. Generally, Cubans are not permitted to cross the causeway to Cayo Coco and Cayo Guillermo, which is another blossoming cay destination of repute. Basically, it is a destination reserved for tourists, most of whom come from Canada and Europe. Other intriguing Cayo Coco information has to do with one of its past visitors. Ernest Hemingway, who was an adventurous soul almost without compare, spent time fishing and writing at both Cayo Coco and Cayo Guillermo, after arriving in his boat, which was named Pilar. One of Cayo Guillermo’s best beaches is named Pilar as a result. The “Jardines del Rey” label for the cays came from the famed Spanish Conquistador, Diego Velázquez, who explored them way back in 1514.**
