Located on the north shore of the eastern province of Camaquey, the Cayo Cruz fishery encompasses an enormous system of flats, lagoons and pristine estuaries. This marine park is 366 square kilometres (141 square miles) in size, meaning that on the average day, each skiff has over 50 square kilometres (19 square miles) to itself. The fishing area is virtually untouched and represents one of the cleanest and most biologically diverse ecosystems you will ever fish. Fishing is predominately for bonefish, permit and tarpon. While in Cayo Cruz you will stay at the Hotel Casona de Romano, located in the town of Brasil. This stately house was built in 1919 and fully renovated two years ago to accommodate the needs of today's traveling angler. The house has eight double rooms with twin beds, two of which overlook the courtyard and church. Each room has a private bath and air conditioning.
