Five reasons why it's good to travel to Cuba this summer.
Cuba is one of the most important tourist destinations in the Caribbean. It has an exuberant nature, a very interesting story and a lovely people. It is impossible to travel to Cuba and not have fun. Here are five reasons why it is well worth traveling to the largest of the Antilles this summer:
Natural parks and beaches
Being in Cuba means enjoying fine sand beaches, coconuts, palm trees and crystal clear waters. A hundred kilometers from Havana is Varadero, a mythical beach with all the necessary infrastructure for the traveler's enjoyment. Other beaches not so famous, but just as spectacular can be enjoyed are Cayo Largo, Cayo Guillermo, Cayo Coco, Cayo Santa Maria, Ancon Beach, Santa Lucia Beach or Esmeralda Beach.
If the tourist looks for the mountain and not the sea in Cuba, he can enjoy numerous natural parks where you can contemplate nature almost in a virgin state. Special visits are those that can be made to the National Parks Alejandro de Humboldt, Desembarco del Granma and the Great Sierra Maestra National Park.
Flavor
In a land privileged by nature, such as Cuba, one of the most exquisite coffees in the world is produced. Once you have a cup of good Cuban coffee, nothing better to complete the experience than smoking a cigar, with justice considered the best tobacco in the world.
For those who love rum, Cuba is the best destination, especially Santiago de Cuba, the cradle of the island's rum industry.
Last but not least, those who visit the island will be able to taste the traditional gastronomy and cocktails of the Island, headed by the traditional mojito and the daiquiri.
Art and music
In Cuba, the best of the Spanish and African heritage is mixed, which has resulted in a series of rhythms that have revived the music and rhythms of today: son, guaracha, cha cha cha, rumba and many others that have made and make dance those who arrive to the largest island in the Caribbean.
The same in the streets as in the cultural institutions, tourists can enjoy an unparalleled experience that will make them want to return again and again.
People
If a people in the world is carefree, sociable and warm, it is Cuban. They are always willing to joke, sing and share with visitors, who make them feel like family.
Havana
Just to see Havana is worth spending hours on a plane. The Cuban capital has well earned its title of Wonder City.
Nothing equals the experience of contemplating a sunset on the Malecón, visiting its colonial fortresses, its old convents and churches or walking through the historic center of the city.
The city has excellent hotels at competitive prices, but you can also choose private homes with all the conditions for a pleasant stay, where the owners make the guests feel like they were another Cuban.
