cuba is awesome mate, going again in september, been twice before, went to the cayos first time & then mainland 2nd time, going back to the cayos again though, theres loads to do, swimming with dolphins, paraglyding, snorkeling, scuba diving, horse riding, all sports, catameran, excursions into havana, if you just want to chill & eat, its all inclusive so drinks on the beach, where i am going theres a steak restaurant right on the beach aswell as a pizza restaurant, then theres the usual buffet restaurant, in the night you can choose from oriental, italian, cuban, seafood, mediteranian, spoilt for choice,

The beaches in the cayos are unbeilavable mate!! do some google searches!!

They have certainly organised their resorts to a very high standard. Canada and Spain helped them, I was told.
You must include a visit to Havana. Superb city, but literally crumbling because of the long years of USA embargo. Trinidad da Cuba great too.

It's the greatest place on earth, got married there also in Varedero.
Varedero, Guardelavaca and the cayo islands are their main tourist places with
fabulous beaches, great people and fantastic food.
If you want to go to Havana for a few days, like we did, you would need to place
your holiday in Varadero as it is close enough to get to, Guardelavaca is too far.
But wherever you go, you will love it. If you dont go to visit Havana over the next 10 years,
you will miss its history and culture has it is forever changing and you will miss stepping back in time.

Cant wait to go back :ayatollah:
