Cayo Guillermo is located off the northern coast of the main island of Cuba (Atlantic side), and are part of an archipelago called Jardines del Rey (King's Gardens), which itself belong to a larger archipelago called Sabana-Camaguey. The Spaniards named the archipelago "Jardines del Rey" in 1513 in honor of King Ferdinand the Catholic.

This sun destination is mostly renowned for its pristine white sand beaches stretching for miles, its calm and shallow crystal-clear waters, and for its quiet away-from-it-all atmosphere and natural surroundings. Cayo Guillermo and the other small cayos nearby are uninhabited, only tourism infrastructures are found on these islands: hotels, commercial centers, marinas, etc. The King's Gardens Archipelago has its own international airport (IATA code: CCC) called "Aeropuerto Jardines del Rey".

Cayo Guillermo is connected to Cayo Coco by a short bridge called "Puente Hemingway", and Cayo Coco is connected to the main island of Cuba by a 27-km (17 mi) causeway built in 1988. It took 16 months to build it and required more than 3 million cubic meters of rocks and stones. From an administrative point of view, these cayos are part of the municipality of Moron which is located about 45 minutes' drive from Cayo Coco, in the province of Ciego de Avila. Visit our Location & Maps section for further information.
