Cayo Las Brujas is located west of Cayo Ensenachos and Cayo Santa Maria. This is the first cayo inhabited after the kilometers of a causeway that connects the village of Caibarien to Cayo Santa Maria.
In Cayo Las Brujas (The Witches in Spanish), there is a small local airport for domestic flights, a gas station, a marina, a hotel, restaurant and bar and a
long beach on a calm sea. In May 2009, we rented a scooter from Cayo Santa Maria to Playa Salina (the beach of Cayo Las Brujas). In moving away from the hotel sector, it is possible to take a sun bath « Au Naturel ». There are no services. Therefore, bring your sunscreen, food and plenty of water.
The Canadian tour operator
Varaplaya now offers stays at the Hotel Cayo Las Brujas in all-inclusive plan (drinks not included).
You can visit Cayo Las Brujas, from hotels of nearby islands by scooter, bicycle or taxi (about 15 kms from Barceló Santa Maria hotel). You reach the hotel section and the marina through the main entrance or by the road west of the airport (opposite to the gas station). There is a sandy road (no sign) to the east of the airport.

Please note that the hotel is guarded, and you cannot move freely. There is also a guard for the marina, but there is no problem to visit or take a drink at the bar at the marina.
For deep-sea fishing (spear or fly) lovers, the
Planet Fly Fishing Club offers
