Cayo Coco, the fourth largest island in Cuba, is located in the Atlantic Ocean opposite the northern coast of the province of Ciego de Avila, 830 km east of Cuba, and is connected to the main island by a 20-kilometer sea road. Cayo Coco communicates with the "mainland" road passing through the Bay of Dogs (Bahia de Perros) on an artificially created embankment. Similar roads connect Cayo Coco with Cayo Guillermo in the west and Cayo Roman in the east.
Cayo Coco - the most isolated resort from civilization in Cuba - is a protected area. Cayo Coco has a rich and almost untouched nature. The inner part of the island is wild thickets that are home to many birds, including pelicans, flamingos and the snow-white bird "Coco", which gave the name to this island. More than 26 km of beaches stretch to the north. Among them are the protected coastlines of La Haula, Los Flamencos and Las Colorados, which are ideal for boating. There is no airport in Cayo Coco, but it is in the nearby town of Ciego de Avila, from where it is easy to get to the island.
