Cuba

Where Time Stands Still and Every Moment is a Fiesta

With year-round sunshine, Cuba is a land of sand-white beaches dotted with palm trees and lots of greenery with many nature parks all over its extensive territory, most of them in mountainous areas. Here you’ll find tropical jungle, easily accessible by well-maintained trails and always with the option of a local nature guide’s assistance. Cuba is famous for the presence of American vintage cars, cigar factories and cocktails, all waiting to be sampled throughout your visit.

Top 10 Highlights

The smallest Bird

Cuba is home to one of the smallest birds in the world, the Bee Hummingbird (Mellisuga helenae). Weighing less than a dime and measuring just 2.0 to 2.4 inches (5.1 to 6.1 cm) long, it holds the title of the world's smallest bird. Found only in Cuba, this remarkable creature is known for its iridescent plumage and incredible agility in flight.

Coral Reef

Cuba is home to the world's second-largest coral reef system, the Jardines de la Reina (Gardens of the Queen). This pristine marine environment is a paradise for divers and snorkelers, boasting an abundance of colorful coral formations, marine life, and underwater caves. Protected as a marine park, it offers a unique opportunity to explore one of the Caribbean's most biodiverse ecosystems.

Top Places to Visit

Havana

Havana– The capital of Cuba. Here you can find the Cuban culture and history. Most know the Colonial part, Patrimony of Mankind by UNESCO. A little enclave of Spain in the Caribbean. But the city is a lot bigger with incredible sites like the Malecon, the Revolution Square, and the Castles of Havana. Havana is essentially a living museum for pretty vintage cars and one should not miss taking a ride in one of these classic convertibles.

Santa Maria Key

Or Cayo Santa Maria is a small group of islands that are connected to the main land by a 42 km long causeway built through the sea: the mere ride is worth the visit! And the islands Santa Maria, Las Brujas and Ensenachos are great examples of the keys that dot the Cuban North coast. It’s all about pristine nature here and of course beaches.

Viñales

The area of Viñales and surrounding Vuelta Abajo is the best place on earth to grow tobacco. But it is also an area for eco-tourism. The valley of Viñales with the mogotes is incredibly beautiful and one can discover it on foot, horse back or by jeep safari. And everywhere you will meet the humble and hospitable Cuban farmers who show their daily lives in the fields.

Santiago de Cuba

The other main city of Cuba after Havana, but completely different. The historical city up the hill has nice plazas and many colonial buildings from different eras. Amongst them is the majestic Cathedral but also the oldest building in the Spanish colonies: the House of Diego Velasquez, the Spanish conqueror of Cuba.

Trinidad

This little town used to be the centre of the Cuban sugar industry around 1800. Sugar barons built palaces in the centre in the typical style of Colonial era, the streets were cobble stoned, and the houses painted in light pastel colours. This historic centre has prevailed through the years and is now Patrimony of Mankind.

Varadero

World famous are the beaches of Cuba and Varadero is the best: 20 km of white sand beach along the narrow peninsula that goes straight into the sea. You find in Varadero hotels of all levels from low key fun hotels to high end luxury resorts. Almost all are all-inclusive and located with a direct access to the beach. The centre of Varadero has a low key night life for those who want to get away from the all-inclusive ambience.
