SUNWING’S GUIDE TO CUBA’S COLOURFUL CAYS

Like an island getaway within their island getaway, Cuba has smaller islands nestled along its northern and southern shores that bring all the beauty Canadians expect from their favourite tropical destination, and set the stage for unforgettable stays.

From group getaways to couples retreats and vacations with the whole family, travellers can find an island and resort to match their vision of the picture-perfect Cuban escape.

Travellers looking to experience top vacations in Cuba can visit the island this summer with ease thanks to convenient weekly flights from multiple gateways across Canada on board Sunwing Airlines.

Family fun in Cayo Coco

Located along Cuba’s northern coast, Cayo Coco is famous around the world for its breathtaking white-sand beaches and colourful coral reefs located off the shore. Families with little ones who can’t get enough of the water will love Starfish Cayo Guillermo, especially when up to two kids (two to 12 years old) stay, play, and eat free, and teens 13 to 17 pay reduced rates.

On land, mini-vacationers will have a blast at the on-site Kids Club and games room while parents unwind by one of the four freshwater pools. The resort also makes spending time on the beach as a family unforgettable with snorkelling, kayaking and pedal boats available, even kitesurfing lessons ($) for the adventurous water junkies.

Getting zen in Cayo Largo

Groups looking to get together and get zen can enjoy a wellness retreat like no other on Cuba’s Sunshine Coast, where Cayo Largo’s natural backdrop, quiet atmosphere, and low-key lifestyle merge. With some of the best weather in Cuba, vacationers can spend sunny days at Memories Cayo Largo offering a wealth of wellness activities to try, from staying active together to unwinding by the pool.

Groups can also make their getaway truly sparkle with Diamond Club accommodations where added amenities and services match the beauty of their stay. What better way to make new memories than an exclusive beach area with wait service, indulging in discounted spa treatments, taking in dinner and a show and so much more!
