Island Life and Coral Reef

The Cayos of Cuba

Print

The Cayos of Cuba is one of S-Trip!’s most unique destinations for your adventure. Rich in eco-life the islands boast a 10 km coral reef, right off a coast marked by beautiful fine white sand and crystal blue sea. Snorkelling tops the list of “to-do’s” for most travelers to the islands; you’ll struggle to keep your mouth around the snorkel when you gasp at more than 6,500 different species of sea life, many of which are found hiding in sunken Spanish galleons on the second largest coral reef in the world!

Cayo Coco is an intimate destination for close groups who want to spend time together and celebrate for one last time. This secluded island – reserved exclusively for foreign tourists – offers everything you need without leaving your resorts. Enjoy being active? You’ll love the choice of water sports whether it’s diving, snorkelling, kayaking, or sailing, S-Trip! will help you find your favourite way to get wet and wild! Away from the sea you can spend time in the colourful colonial town of Moron to get a taste of authentic Cuban life. With the help of the friendly and welcoming local staff, S-Trip! will create great, memorable events that will be the highlight of your year…like an incredible private fiesta in a natural rock grotto that always turns into a night of out of this world fun! With kind locals and incredible natural scenery, this island paradise is the perfect, safe destination for your adventure!

Cayo Coco felt like a private island for me and my friends!
