In this piece, we take a look at some of the essential spots to stop-off at when enjoying a luxury yacht charter vacation in Cuba.
Located on the North coast of Cuba between the Bay of Dogs and the Atlantic Ocean, Cayo Guillermo established its international reputation in the 60s when deep-sea fishers realized its huge potential.
In characteristic Caribbean style, its beaches are resplendent with palm trees and white sands fringe its lush blue waters. For those looking for a charter destination that comfortably accommodates divers and relaxers, Guillermo offers the perfect solution.
Fittingly, Earnest Hemingway captured the beauty of the island in the climax of his novel 'Islands In The Stream', a gesture that earned him a beach named in his honor.

The real lost gem of Cuba’s islands, Cayo Sabinal is located 15 miles from the North coast of Santa Lucia and owes its obscurity to being a little off the beaten path.
A perfect retreat for those chartering the busy spots of Cuba, Cayo Sabinal is so tranquil it regularly attracts deer and horses in its surrounding woodlands.
