Cuba’s beaches are unique for the rich tones of their clear warm water. The island’s coasts include everything from challenging cliffs to peaceful coves, the setting for incredible sun and sea Cuba holidays.
The insular shelf is bounded by an extensive coral reef where a great variety of colorful fish bewitch scuba-diving buffs, both beginners and experts. In addition, there are underwater caves to explore. Casting loose your mooring lines in Cuban waters means setting sail into a spectacular sea adventure.
Lands of legends and myths, thousands of tiny islands enclose a fascinating mini-world in which the conditions have been created for having a daring adventure. Cuba has several marinas or sports ports that offer all of the services you need for having a delightful stay.
Many places on Cuba’s coasts are already famous: Varadero, Guardalavaca, Esmeralda, Santa Maria del Mar, Santa Lucia and Ancn Beaches, which are loved by tourists from all over the world, and Coco, Guillermo, Largo del Sur, Santa Maria, Las Brujas and Levisa Cays.
There are places-anonymous as yet or little known-virgin beaches which are not the exception but rather the rule. Large or small, they are waiting to be discovered on the Guanahacabibes Peninsula, a preserve of the biosphere; the coasts in the center and eastern parts of the country; and in tranquil Baracoa, at the eastern extreme of the island. You can enjoy them to the full in complete safety. There’s nothing quite like walking along a beach for hours with nothing to disturb you.
Coral reefs extend along practically the entire edge of the broad insular shelf (for around 1984 miles, or 3200 kilometers). More than half of these reefs are separated from the main island by large areas of shallow water and groups of cays.
Scientific studies estimate that there are over 500 species of fish; 200 different kinds of sponges (cup, tube and branch); around 60 kinds of coral; and a large sample of mollusks, crustaceans, gorgonians, algae and Common Sea Fans (Gorgonia spp.) in Cuban waters.

For one simple thing , I can not shine recommending a package holiday for the fact that the most interesting resorts and best hotels are completely sold out , and then I am left with the only honest answer I can give. “I am truthfully sorry but at this point there is nothing available that I feel comfortable recommending ”
If you want to stay in big resorts then there is not much to worry about.

You are about to discover one of the most dazzling places where to spend a brilliant night out in Havana in your Cuba holidays. The place is widely known as A Paradise Under the Stars and the name is Tropicana.
Tropicana is located in Havana in the municipality of Marianao towards the west end. This outdoors Cabaret features the very best of the Cuban music which has evolved one of the best dancing music in the world. Rumba, Cha Cha Cha, Bolero, Guaracha, Timba and Salsa rhythms are played every evening.
This amazing Cabaret also takes pride in having the best popular dancing school in Cuba. Needless to say you will be up to one hell of a treat for your eyes.
Tropicana opened its doors more than half a century ago and it has hosted the best performers in the American continent such as Nat King Cole, Carmen Miranda, Cheo Feliciano and Bola de Nieve.
The 1950?s in Cuba were certainly turbulent years. Corruption, gambling and prostitution were in the menu of the inner circles of the Cuban Society. Tropicana was the gathering place for whoever was wealthy and influential in Cuba.
Since the Revolution led by Castro in 1953 which triumph in 1959 things have never been the same in the Caribbean Island. The revolutionaries attacked everything that evoked the previous regime. Gambling and prostitution were eradicated.
The Complex also has a restaurant on separate building but all mingles extraordinarily well in a jungle of tropical forest. The outdoor Cabaret has room for over 1000 people and it gets packed every night. A booking in advance is required to secure a seat.
Havana is full of excellent places where to spend a night out but nothing like Tropicana will remain in your mind as one of the best shows you have ever seen in your entire life.
