“TRANSFER TO CAYO COCO (ONE WAY) + 2 HOURS OF CITY TOUR IN SANCTI SPÍRITUS“ Tour

Sancti Spíritus is one of the oldest and most picturesque cities in Cuba, located in the center of the country. Founded on June 4, 1514 by Spanish conquistador Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar, this city preserves great historical, cultural and architectural value. Its name, which means “Holy Spirit” in Latin, refers to the religious festivity of the foundation, and reflects the strong influence of the Catholic Church in its early days. The city of Sancti Spíritus is characterized by its cobblestone streets, vibrantly colored colonial houses and quiet squares, which evoke the colonial atmosphere of bygone times. Its historic center has been declared a National Monument, with the Plaza Mayor, where the Iglesia Parroquial Mayor del Espíritu Santo, one of the most important religious constructions in the region, is located. The colonial architecture blends with the passage of time, creating a unique atmosphere that attracts both tourists and residents.

One of the most emblematic elements of the city is the iron bridge over the Yayabo River, a construction dating from 1825 that has become a symbol of Sancti Spíritus. This bridge is considered one of the oldest in Cuba and is a meeting and photographic point for visitors to the city. Sancti Spíritus is also known for its rich cultural tradition and gastronomy. Music, especially trova and traditional Cuban music, is an integral part of daily life in the city. In the surroundings of Sancti Spíritus, there are natural areas of great beauty, such as the national parks and the plains of Cabaiguán, which invite visitors to explore the local flora and fauna.

Cayo Coco, located in the Jardines del Rey, is one of the most paradisiacal destinations in Cuba. With its turquoise waters, white sands and impressive biodiversity, it is the ideal place to disconnect and enjoy the natural beauty. This small paradise, connected to the island of Cuba by a road over the sea, has been recognized for its great biodiversity, with its virgin beaches and exuberant marine fauna. Cayo Coco offers a unique experience, not only for its landscape, but also for the tranquility that is breathed. The large hotel chains have turned it into a popular destination, but without losing its natural essence. It is common to find tourists enjoying a swim in its warm waters, while others venture to explore its trails, perfect for walks or bike rides.

In addition, the area is home to various species of birds, such as flamingos, which can be seen in its lagoons and mangroves. If you are passionate about diving or snorkeling, Cayo Coco invites you to explore its colorful coral reefs, full of marine life. Every corner of this key invites you to relax, whether sunbathing on one of its dream beaches or enjoying a sunset on the horizon.
