JARDINES AVALON F II
Exclusive accommodations with personalized service at the "JARDINES DE LA REINA"
Jardines Avalon F II is a 131 foot vessel, larger than Jardines Avalon F I, with 10 state rooms, that started operating since April 2014. It is air conditioned with private bathrooms.
Both live aboards are intimate, comfortable and stylishly designed yachts, where each space is created to provide its guests with maximum comfort and safety. The atmosphere was conceived and designed to provide our guests with an experience of a lifetime.
Its overall capacity is 20 passengers and 9 crew members. We suggest between 10 and 16 anglers for optimum comfort. The design and interior decor give the yacht a touch of intimacy, refinement, a sense of warmth and simplicity. The boat has the perfect balance of substantial exploration capabilities and a unique and noble style. It guarantees all our guests a pleasant, exciting and exclusive voyage through Jardines de la Reina.
Jardines Avalon F II has 10 deluxe cabines, with 10 private bathrooms
Each room includes air conditioning and heat controls, electricity plugs, as well as storage in drawers. Each room has panoramic windows to enjoy the breathtaking view of the Caribbean beaches.
There is a spacious and comfortable combination lounge, dining room and bar area on the boat deck.
In cabins and common areas there are electric sockets available for you to plug in your personal items (220 volts and 110 volts).
What to expect during your week
After arrival to Jucaro port you will board your mothership. Depending on the season, you will either begin the navigation out to Gardens of the Queen (between 3hrs - 5hrs) that afternoon or stay aboard overnight in port and head out very early Sunday morning to the Gardens. Saturday afternoon you will be served a light snack and receive the Welcome & Safety briefing, cabin assignments and anticipated program schedule for the week. Enjoy your first night’s dinner aboard that evening, followed by a restful night’s sleep before starting your week of activities Sunday morning.
US Citizens: Our cruises fall under the humanitarian and environmental projects general license category.
Marine biologists working with Avalon will be teaching and collaborating with the guests about marine conservation and the Gardens of the Queen's unique ecosystem. The guests will be immersed in a participatory environmental project throughout their diving week that integrates perfectly into the diving schedule while building on a long term sustainable conservation initiative through active engagement from divers, Cuban marine biologists and guides. All travelers will be granted a certificate of participation and completion of this humanitarian and environmental project along with a full itinerary of activities that will certify them as legal under US and Cuban regulations for their diving week.
