Tourism in Cuba

Tourism in the Caribbean is an essential element in the economy of the region, where Cuba plays a key role due to its unique characteristics.

According to experts, Cuba offers its exuberant nature, rich culture and history, and dozens of kilometers of excellent beaches.

The island's nature, distributed in more than 4,000 keys and islets that make up the Cuban archipelago, is a plus for those interested in ecotourism.

Cuban fauna is very diverse and consists of more than 350 species birds that live on islets and keys throughout the country and many of which are endemic.

In addition, the archipelago's geographic location turns Cuba into a corridor for migratory birds that travel long distances from North America to South America and vice versa.

The Cuban archipelago also offers more than 70,000 square kilometers of insular platform and some 5,000 kilometers of coasts, which are bathed by the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea.

Nearly 6,500 varieties of fish, crustaceans, sponges and mollusks, and an 850-kilometer coral reef in perfect state of preservation turn the island into one of the best-preserved underwater ecosystems in the region.

One of the best dive sites is on Isla de la Juventud (Isle of Youth), discovered by Admiral Christopher Columbus during his second voyage to the so-called New World, where extraordinarily-beautiful coral reefs run parallel to the islet's south coast and diving enthusiasts can visit the Punta Francés National Marine Park.

Tourists can dive in 56 sites, many of which are inhabited by large colonies of corals and sponges. That zone also offers caves, passages and tunnels.

Moreover, Cuba's tourism sector has the infrastructure necessary for travelers to spend their vacations and, at the same time, improve their health.

Thousands of Cuban health professionals, hi-tech equipment and dozens of specialized centers are available for tourists, who can also benefit from programs on traditional and natural medicine, including medicinal waters and mud, which are excellent to treat several diseases.
