Cayo Coco, named after the white ibis, is part of the Jardines del Rey archipelago and is connected to Cuba’s Atlantic coast by a 17-mile causeway. It is primarily known for its white sand beaches, crystalline waters, and off-the-beaten-path ambiance. The islands are uninhabited except for hotels and other tourism facilities. The majority of the island’s interior is vegetation, and is home to over 200 bird species, including a flamingo colony. Activities at this ultimate beach destination include all types of watersports, fishing, diving, swimming with the dolphins, and kitesurfing. Visitors willing to venture away from all-inclusive resorts can experience modestly priced lobster feasts at local beach ranchons (bar and grill). Cayo Coco
