Cayo Santa María is a stunning island escape on Cuba's northern coast, part of the Jardines del Rey archipelago and declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Reached via an impressive 48-kilometer causeway known locally as the pedraplen, this tropical paradise connects the mainland to the neighboring keys of Cayo Las Brujas and Cayo Ensenachos before arriving at Cayo Santa María itself. Measuring just 13 kilometers long and 2 kilometers wide, the island is famous for its beach of fine white sand on the northern shore, perfect for long walks, swimming, and sunbathing, while the southern side is protected by lush mangrove swamps teeming with wildlife. Water sports enthusiasts will find Cayo Santa María a dream destination, especially for kitesurfing. Launch directly from the beach in front of the hotels or from the causeway itself, where a chain of shallow lagoons offers clear, flat water ideal for riders of all levels. Travelers arriving at the renovated Santa Clara airport can enjoy scenic bus transfers through the Cuban countryside, catching glimpses of local life and beautiful landscapes along the way. Browse Travelnet Cuba's carefully selected hotels in Cayo Santa María and plan your perfect Caribbean beach vacation in one of Cuba's most pristine island destinations.
