Cuba - The places of your holidays on a sailing yacht and catamaran

Welcome to Cuba, the Pearl of the Caribbean! You are on the island of cigars, rhum, salsa and Che Guevara. But beyond the stereotypes, a holiday in this magnificent island is an experience to live at least once in a lifetime. Cuba boasts unrivalled natural landscapes (just think of the beaches and the famous cayos, the little wild islands off the coast), a rich cultural heritage and a lively, proud, hospitable population.

In spite of its geographical location, which sets Cuba in the Caribbean Sea, and above all, close to the influential United States, the island of rhum and cigars has always maintained its political isolation, away from mass tourism. Now that the embargo has fallen, Cuba offers any kind of accommodations thanks to the cordiality of the local inhabitants, including casas particulares, private houses that are used to host visitors: certainly the best way to get an insight on local culture while visiting!

As for climate the island is uniform. It is typically tropical and divided into two seasons, dry during the winter from November to April and very humid and hot from May to October. The average temperatures throughout the year are included between 20 and 30 ° C. The rainfalls are abundant during summer and from August to October with a high risk of hurricanes. During the rainy season, the air is hot and muggy and precipitation usually take the shape of storms.

Cuba is considered the pearl of the Caribbean for a reason. Visitors are attracted by the beautiful beaches of the coast, where you can try snorkeling and scuba diving, the capital city of Havana, with old colorful buildings and the old American vintage cars, the colonial cities, such as Cienfuegos, whose historic center is UNESCO Heritage, or Trinidad, and finally the green Vinales, with its lush tobacco plantations, and the verdant nature of the hinterland, perfect for hiking.

Thanks to the cordiality of its people, Cuba is known as the island of the sun, the smiles and the good company. Its inhabitants will greet you like you are natives, inviting you to join the dances and the parties on the beach. Indeed, Cuba is the perfect destination for those who want to smoke a cigar under a palm tree on a beautiful sandy beach and drink a typical cockail, but it is also the ideal destination for those who want to party till dawn.
