Cuba
Having only recently opened its arms to the cruise industry we can safely say that Cuba has quickly become the place to visit. Generally offered as a ‘Caribbean’ destination, here at Cruise Circle we felt that Cuba is so unique that it deserved it's very own page. As the largest Caribbean island, Cuba offers its own signature architecture, art, food and music, as well as beautiful beaches, all of which have romanticised by authors such as Ernest Hemmingway, who spent 20 years on the island.

Cruise lines will generally visit Havana as part of a Caribbean itinerary of seven or 14 nights. Some cruise lines have itineraries starting and finishing in Havana (the largest and most populated city in the Caribbean), giving you the option to add pre and post cruise stays. Other frequently visited ports include Cienfuegos and Santiago de Cuba. Smaller ships may also be able to dock in smaller coastal areas
Tour Havana in a car from the 1950s or see UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as Cienfuegos and Trinidad. Visit a Tabacco plantation and learn how to roll your own. Dance to live salsa at the famed Cabaret Tropicana Night Club, and catch a Latin jazz act at Jazz Café.
Cruising is widely considered to be a great way to explore Cuba as you can cover more ground quickly, rather than relying on the local transport infrastructure. You also have your home comforts onboard the ship. The best time to visit is from December to May.
Until recently Cuba was subject to a strict communist regime. Many locals have never left the island and have only been exposed to state run media. Poverty and a lack of socioeconomic mobility is a great source of frustration for many Cubans. One bonus for authenticity seeking travellers is that there are no chain restaurants and shopping outlets. For this reason Cuba is often referred to as a place untouched by time.
Cuba is changing rapidly but for now, its legendary nightlife, iconic music, distinct culture and its world-renowned charm are proudly on display.
