A vast, virtually uninhabited swampy wilderness spanning the southern Matanzas, the 4520-sq-km Peninsula de Zapata, quickens the pulse of wildlife watchers and divers alike with the country´s most important bird species and some of the most magical off-shore reef diving secreted in the humid embrance. It is the second biggest wetland in the World. It was declared Unesco Biosphere Reserve in 2001. Then when you arrived there you will be surrounded by nature.
