Situated by the river and lake that gave it its name and halfway between the cities of Trinidad and Sancti Spíritus, is the Hotel Zaza. It is an ideal spot for those who wish to practice nature tourism, speleological tourism, and cycling tourism. It is also visited by those in transit to other destinations and, above all, by amateur hunters and freshwater anglers, who will find attractive and exceptional conditions here. Lake Zaza is Cuba's largest artificial lake and 40-50 percent of its area is devoted to sports fishing only. You can fish all year around the lakes Lebrije and La Felicidad or in the rivers Alabama and Zaza. The best fishing season runs from November to April. Bigmouth black bass weighing up to 8 kilograms attract professional anglers who insist on repeating their visits. The facility offers hunters the Coto Zaza (Zaza Preserve), which is abundant in ducks, quail, snipes, white-winged and white-tailed laurel pigeons and which provides specialized guides, rifle and cartridge rentals, well-trained hunting dogs, freezers and comfortable jeeps that will undoubtedly make a hunting day easier. However, the Hotel Zaza has more options, including excursions to Cayo Blanco (Key Blanco), where its pristine nature features 20 meters of fine white-sand beaches, and to the colonial-style cities of Trinidad and Sancti Spíritus, both of which boast major historic and architectural treasures. There are also day and night shows. |
