If you love partying, salsa, and mojitos, you'll be in heaven in Varadero. After a day of sunbathing on beautiful white sand beaches, you can continue relaxing in festive bars or clubs where you can dance until dawn.
Ernest Hemingway was a great lover of Cuba. You can consider an itinerary following his footsteps during a trip to Cuba.

The variety of wildlife and flora in Cuba allows for a wonderful immersion in Caribbean and tropical nature. Among the natural wonders: the Sierra del Rosario, a biosphere reserve; the Vinales Valley, a UNESCO natural heritage site; the Gran Piedra National Park.
Discover the fine sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters
Boasting nearly 4,000 km of coastline, Cuba offers an impressive number of beautiful beaches with crystal clear waters. Not to be exhaustive, but let's mention Varadero, Playa Pilar, Guardalavaca, and a series of islets (cayos), each more beautiful than the last. These places enchant you with their stretches of powdery white sand. The beaches are generally more beautiful on the north coast.
Relaxation or sports, the combinations are numerous. You can laze on your towel or indulge in the joys of water sports such as windsurfing, snorkeling, or kayaking.

A Refreshing Nature
With three mountainous areas, the Sierra de Guaniguanico to the west, the Escambray massif in the center, and the Sierra Maestra to the east, and unique karst rock formations in the Viñales Valley, including the mogotes, prepare to discover a generous and still perfectly preserved nature.

On the surface, you will equally appreciate the variety of fauna and flora, with an extremely high rate of endemism.
Wonderful Havana
It is impossible not to mention the mythical Cuban capital. Its magnificent colonial district, Old Havana, has been revitalized thanks to a vast restoration policy. Its Malecón, a seaside promenade opening onto the Florida Strait, is the true backbone of the city.
