Holidays in Cayo Coco

inch the Caribbean paradise you’ve dreamed of. It’s long days by the beach, and classy rum cocktails at the hotel bar; catamaran cruises to deserted islands and snorkelling with a thousand iridescent fish. A holiday to Cayo Coco is escapism, pure and simple.

Located on Cuba’s central coast, Cayo Coco lounges just off the mainland, anchored by a single narrow causeway. It’s one pearl in a necklace of equally idyllic islands known as the Jardines del Rey (the King’s Garden), an archipelago of luxury and dreamy coastlines.

Most travellers head here for an all-inclusive beach holiday. With over 20km of beautiful soft sand to flop out on – the sand is even raked daily to ensure it’s in pristine condition for a day’s lazing – there’s little else needed for a relaxing break.

Fancy something a bit more active? The island’s glassy waters are perfect for snorkelling; with a handful of reefs just off the coast, you can swim out from some of its beaches. Alternatively, head out on a catamaran cruise for open water snorkelling.

For divers, there are a number of schools on the cay, which handle everything from one off excursions to full-on diving certifications.

Unfortunately for budget travellers, Cayo Coco’s enviable location means that the cheaper accommodation you’d usually find in other Cuban coastal towns is a rarity – the majority of hotels are four-star and up. That said, if you shop around and look to travel in the shoulder seasons, you can still find some decent deals. A small airport on the island, Jardines del Rey Airport, allows tourists to fly straight to the island.

When to go to Cayo Coco

Cayo Coco has reliably warm weather, but its tropical climate means downpours in the latter half of the year are common. The driest months are between December and April, when daytime temperatures hover around the mid-20s and evenings are cool.

For a cheap holiday to Cayo Coco, travel outside the UK school holidays and Christmas period if you can. Aim for shoulder months May, June and October for the best chance of an affordable holiday.

July and August are the hottest months, regularly tipping over 30C, but rainfall can be heavy from May to September. Hurricane seasons lasts from June until November but serious storms outside of August and September are rare.
