Playa Pilar
Don't miss Playa Pilar in Cayo Guillermo. It is one of the most beautiful beaches in Cuba and the entire Caribbean. With crystal clear waters and sun-drenched white sands, Playa Pilar sure paints a beautiful picture. The beach is named after Ernest Hemingway's yacht, as the famous novelist spent much time here.
Located right at one end of Cayo Guillermo, this beautiful beach is one of the best in Cuba. It's a very comfortable place to visit. Its remote location means you'll often find it completely deserted.
Because it borders a lush national park, there are several beautiful trails to follow among the dunes and mangroves. Many people come here to encounter the majestic flock of flamingos that call this coast home. While not many hotels, restaurants, or bars, a few are scattered here and there. It emphasizes what Playa Pilar is all about - sun, sea, sand, and solitude amid breathtaking scenery.
Due to the transparency of the water, Playa Pilar is ideal for snorkeling. Various colorful fishes in here will amaze you. Moreover, if you want to dive more professionally, this is also a great place for scuba diving, but you have to go out to sea.
Very close to Playa Pilar, there is a marina where there is a dolphinarium, you can do a variety of activities, from renting a small boat to doing catamaran routes.
