Overview

"BOAT RIDE IN THE BAY OF CIENFUEGOS + OPEN BAR" Tour

Sail into the charm of Cienfuegos, the radiant “Pearl of the South,” a city that graces Cuba’s southern coast with its elegance and history. Founded by French settlers in the 19th century, Cienfuegos delights visitors with its harmonious architecture, broad boulevards, and graceful colonial buildings that reflect a refined European influence.

Your journey begins with a leisurely boat ride across the peaceful waters of Cienfuegos Bay, the island’s second most important port. As you glide over the bay, enjoy panoramic views of the city’s landmarks — from the stately Tomás Terry Theater and the Provincial Museum, to the Arc de Triomphe that proudly honors Cuban independence.

When the sun begins to set, the city and sea are bathed in warm hues of gold and coral. In the distance, the Castillo de Jagua, an imposing 18th-century fortress, stands guard at the bay’s entrance — a silent witness to centuries of maritime history. This serene and romantic experience captures the very essence of Cienfuegos, where culture, nature, and elegance come together in perfect harmony.
