On the Caribbean side of Cuba lie two idyllic islands\u2014the Isle of Youth and Cayo Largo de Sur\u2014with sugar-white beaches and unparalleled dive sites.
\nThe Isle of Youth is second in size only to the main island. Grapefruit fields, pine trees, parrots and marshes characterize this spot, which also houses schools for young Cuban and foreign students. A few kilometres to the southwest lies Cayo Largo del Sur, an idyllic little key in the heart of the Caribbean.
