Jeep Safari “Nature Tour Caribbean Day”

Description

The Zapata Swamp is one of the most unique sites in Cuba, where several types of swamp ecosystems, moderately or little modified by man's action, are grouped together. It is distinguished by swampy soils and a diversity of endemic species of flora and fauna. There is the largest crocodile farm in the Americas and the most extensive corridor of migratory birds in the Caribbean.

Because of the diversity and fragility of ecosystems, UNESCO declared this place a Biosphere Reserve in 2000. It was also granted the title of Ramsar site in 2001, becoming the first wetland in Cuba to be internationally recognized. On April 12, 2001, the Zapata Swamp was declared a World Heritage Site. It is a natural paradise for lovers of ecological tourism.
