Recommended beaches

Long and broad white strips of sand, fine texture, soft declines, dark sands, others that won’t get hot despite the weather, great natural pools,... all kinds of Caribbean beaches are represented in the 300 beaches existing in the country.

Varadero Beach

Cuban beaches continue to be the greatest tourist attraction in the island and the reason why so many people have traveled to Cuba all over the years.

Of clean, warm waters, with 20 to 30 meters of transparence and diversity of tones, the 300 beaches in Cuba and some nearby keys remain calm during most of the year. The light tides, absence of strong currents, and the presence in many cases of reef formations keep the seashore from the visit of the great waves.

Some of the most important beaches in Cuba are the following:

• Varadero (Matanzas)
• Guardalavaca (Holguin)
• Cayo Coco
• Cayo Largo
• Cayo Guillermo
• Santa Maria del Mar (La Habana)
• Jibacoa (Habana)
• Ancon (Trinidad)
• Santa Lucía (Camaguey)
• Guanabo (La Habana)
• Maria la Gorda (Pinar del Rio)

Those who have been delighted by the charm of any of our beaches assure once and again that Cuba exists to be a part of the visitor’s memories forever.
