Being in the Caribbean it would have been a shame to miss the idyllic beaches of Cuba. Whilst we were staying in Vinales we took a day trip to relax with the locals at Cayo Jutias: It may sound strange but if someone offers you lobster whilst you are sitting on the beach, take them up on the offer! It will be cheaper and better than the food in the only restaurant!
After our time in Vinales we decided to spend a couple of days on the island of Cayo Levisa. It had great accommodation with excellent air conditioning, though the water can run dry on the island until it is replenished by boats from the mainland. It was lovely staying only 20m from the beach and swimming in the amazingly warm, turquoise ocean! The only downside was the food which was simple and all meals are basically the same (which came as a shock after being spoilt in Vinales!). We had heard that Cuba has some great scuba diving so decided to give it a go. There were some amazing sights to see but the diving in Mexico was definitely better!
