Rocarena Climbing Center

Reviewed By imayrand - Ottawa, Canada

My 11 year old daughter loves climbing activities. So we HAD to go there. I usually am not scared of anything but this was something. All paths are different and the level of difficulties varies from one path to another. It was really fun and felt extremely safe. However I had my knees shaking after some challenging paths... I recommend this for everyone! The structure is also a piece of art if you are not an adept of climbing ! It is worth taking the time to see the imagination that went into building it.

Playa Pilar

Reviewed By purpleewee

It’s a 10CUC peso cab ride each way or 5CUC each way on the bus that stops at each hotel every hour up until around 5pm-ish (if you take a cab there prearrange with your driver when you want him to come back to get you - best tip we got) Rent a day bed or 2 deck chairs under a covered & elevated shaded space for 10CUC & they (an older Cuban gentleman wearing a hat - think softened-Cuban-style-grandpa with a fanny pack) give you 3 free drinks (tickets exchanged) at the beach bar as well, (cocktails, beer - didn’t see wine as an option) which also has premium pineapple filled fruit filled drinks & light snacks (Pringle’s etc) at a reasonable price Rent just 2 beach chairs for 4CUC There are no hotels on this beach area - though catamarans do include the beach on day tours & pull in daily They also offer excursions from this beach but really it’s fantastic on its own & worth checking out. There is a small decent restaurant right on the beach at the end of the boardwalk that serves chicken & lobster dishes as well as beer and wi e & it has a thatched roof covering but still outside and open. Was there in March and the sun is intense - pack a good sunblock, hats & cover ups. Bring TP - the bathrooms were usable but not idea - keeping in mind it is Cuba ;)

Laguna La Redonda

Reviewed By Superkatt - Sweden, null

Visit to this Lagoon was a part of the organized bus-tour from our hotel at Cayo Coco. We embarked smaller motorboats and traveled around and across the lagoon in about an hour. Journey went through mangrove-forests, small waterchannels, wonderful tropical nature and vegetation as orquids and different sorts of palms growing in natural environment. It was a nice activity in the hot midday, and afterwards is possible to rest at the small cafe on the spot or maybe go fishing if you have time.

In a country where there really aren’t a lot of original crafts these are exceptionally creative. It was really wonderful to see what had been done with cutlery. These would make unique gifts for taking home.

We took a hobbie cat over to the island from Playa Pilar for $20 CUC each. This included return transportation and lunch with 2 drinks. Great meal and the staff were very nice. The island is beautiful with pine trees, hermit crabs and beautiful sandy beaches. Nice side excursion for an afternoon.
