Your Destinations —
Havana offers a vibrant mix of cultures, history, and experiences. Its cobbled streets are alive with cafes, bars and the rhythmic sounds of the rumba. The city’s architecture is an eclectic mix of Baroque, Neoclassical and Art Deco styles and the colonial buildings of ‘Old Havana’ have earned the city a UNESCO World Heritage Listing.
Culturally Havana is a melting pot of influences from Europe, Africa and the Americas. Its unique ambience and resilient character have lured writers, artists and even the occasional revolutionary. With a wealth of exciting attractions, there is so much to do and see.
Explore the museums and galleries of the old town, enjoy a cabaret show at the Tropicana, visit the colourful markets at Palacio de la Artesanía, sip a mojito at one of the atmospheric bars or escape to the beach at Playas del Este. Now is the time to experience Havana, one of the world’s few unspoilt treasures.
Varadero seduces visitors with the transparency and tranquillity of its warm waters, and wide stretches of fine, clean, pure sand. It is 140 km to the east of Havana, located on the Hicacos peninsula.
Also known as Playa Azul, because the waters reflect all shades of blue, the area offers a staggering 32 dive sites! At its most eastern point is the Varahicacos Ecological Reserve, a beautiful, fascinating area with a wide variety of flora and fauna.
