Jardines del Rey
On the north shore of the province of Ciego de Avila, a 27-km-long paved causeway leads to the Archipelago Jardines del Rey, offering marvelous beaches, typical vegetation, wild fauna and a quiet sea. The two main cays and tourist attractions of the archipelago are Cayo Coco and Cayo Guillermo. With 21 km of amazing beaches, Cayo Coco is an excellent destination for scuba divers and birders. Cayo Guillermo lies 3 km west of Cayo Coco. This smaller cay is home to flamingos and pelicans. This was also one of novelist Ernest Hemingway’s favorite fishing spots mentioned in his novel based on his real life adventures “Islands in the Stream”. Its main attraction is Playa Pilar, also discovered by Hemingway, full of sand dunes, crystal clear waters and different fish species.
