Cayo Largo, Cuba: 7 days catamaran cruise

After the transfer from the Havana airport to the Cienfuegos Yacht Club, from 6 p.m. you can board our catamaran to enjoy dinner prepared by the on-board chef, or alternatively to eat in the town's typical restaurants. We will cast off our moorings at midnight, to set sail on an unforgettable night cruise under the Caribbean sky, to Cayo Guano del Est or Cayo Sal, depending on the weather conditions in the area.

You will wake up after a full night of sailing, with the crew intent on anchoring and a freshly prepared breakfast. Anchoring in this bay will allow you to take a swim in the crystal-clear, pristine waters of the Los Canarreos archipelago, gateway to the legendary Cayo Largo. In the morning, you will have the opportunity to go snorkelling on the reef or relax on the beach before lunch on board; in the afternoon, we will head towards Playa Mal Tiempo and, during the transfer, you can try fishing. We will reach Playa Sirena for a last evening swim before dinner, which will be served with the catamaran at anchor in this corner of paradise.

After breakfast and a few dips, we will hoist the sails to Cayo Rico, another picture-postcard location where you can swim and snorkel in the crystal-clear waters or walk on the beach with iguanas or explore the island by kayak. In the early afternoon you can swim in the beautiful coral reefs surrounding this atoll by tender. We sail for two hours until we reach the island of Cayo Largo, where customs procedures will be carried out, before going to anchor to spend the night and have dinner under the stars.

After a hearty breakfast, we will head towards Playa Cayo Rosario, where you will have the opportunity to fish and snorkel with hundreds of colourful tropical fish living in the reef - the impression will be that of swimming in an aquarium. We will stay all afternoon in this paradise and in the evening we will have dinner at anchor near Cayo Rosario.

Breakfast on board, and sailing to Cayo Largo: the real gem of this trip! In the morning we will stop at Canal del Estopa where you can spend your time snorkelling, kayaking and walking on the magnificent beach, swimming with turtles and exploring every corner of this paradise with the tender. In the early afternoon, after lunch, we will weigh anchor and set sail for Cayo Largo. After we moor at the Marina, you will have the opportunity to explore the island, go shopping and visit the sea turtle sanctuary. You can have dinner on board or in one of the typical Cuban restaurants in the area around the harbour.

After a relaxing breakfast and, once customs formalities have been completed, we will leave for Quinto Canal, to kayak among the mangroves, swim in the amazing natural pools of the island, and stroll along the white sandy beach. The chef will be waiting on board for lunch. In the afternoon, we will visit Paraiso and Punta del Este, beautiful locations for snorkelling and swimming among tropical fish. Dinner will be served at anchor under the stars of the Caribbean sky.

After breakfast, we will set the sails to Cienfuegos, not before stopping for one last kayak ride and swim on the pristine reef. After lunch as we head towards the Cienfuegos Marina, you will have the opportunity to fish and relax before spending the last night on board: aperitifs at the Marina before dinner on our catamaran.

Check-out is scheduled in the morning by 09:00.
