Cuba Information
A holiday in Cuba is like no other you will have experienced. Being the biggest island in the Caribbean, Cuba offers everything you’d associate with this gorgeous little corner of the world: sea, sun, sand and a laid back vibe. However, there’s something very different about Cuba, something that sets it apart. Maybe it’s the island’s extraordinary history, its political system, its decades of self-sufficiency in the face of global controversy, its unique Afro-Latin culture - whatever it is, it certainly makes Cuba one of the most intriguing holiday destinations in the world.
Cuba holidays are certain to make you see things from a different perspective. You’ll find yourself asking questions like: how do those ancient 1950s American cars still run? How is it that the corner shop that was empty of stock yesterday is full today? Daily life in Cuba has an unsettling randomness about it that is like nothing you’ve ever experienced. The key to a great holiday is to embrace the Cubans’ nonchalant attitude, fire up a genuine Havana cigar, order another rum cocktail and let the relaxed atmosphere wash over you.Cuba, the Caribbean's largest island, is located 90 miles south of Florida. You must visit Havana, the islands capital, which has beautiful old colonial buildings and a sense of faded grandeur. The old part of the city and its fortifications are a UNESCO World Heritage site and form the backdrop to many a photoshoot. Havana is also famous for its 1950s American cars, rum and cigars. Located 2 hours east drive from Havana you'll find Varadero which protrudes out on a long, thin peninsula and has over 20km of stunning soft white sand beaches.
