Beaches in La Havana

The warm waters of the Playas de Este beaches near the city are popular with the locals, or habaneros, as well as travellers from further afield. You can swim or sunbathe here, or as the atmosphere is a lively and social one, make some friends from La Havana.

Further along this strip of coast, Tarara beach contains a marina that is perfect for those who wish to go diving or fishing.

27 kilometres away from Havana, there’s the excellent Guanabo Beach, with long stretches of beautiful Cuban coastline, it’s one of the most highly visited beaches in this area.

La Havana Activities

For a fascinating day out – why not visit the factories that produce Cuba’s most famous export, none other than the Cigar. Here you’ll discover fascinating details about the history of this symbolic smoke.

Or for another educational venture – there’s the Museo de la Revolution, somewhere near the site of the landing point of Che Guevara and Fidel Castro!

Then there’s the marvellous Catedral de San Cristobal, in Old Havana. It’s one of the grandest buildings in the city and well worth the time spent gazing up at its baroque facades.

La Havana Nightlife

The Havana Bolero is worth a visit in the evening; a famous nightspot where you can sample some of the mind blowing cocktails that the bar is renowned for.

Then for a literary-minded night out – there’s the Hotel Ambos Mundos, which once was the bar that Ernest Hemingway used to come and drink into the small hours.

El Floridita, another one of the Hemingway drinking-holes, is great for its tipple of choice, the daiquiri.
