Cuba is a misunderstood paradise in the middle of the Caribbean. Due to its position as one of the world’s last truly communist states, it has not really been the subject of mass tourism unlike the majority of its neighbours. This may be soon to change however as there is a distinct chance that the USA will change its laws and allow US citizens to visit Cuba. Once this occurs, Cuba will become a totally different holiday resort, so the time to visit it is now. Cuba has much to offer as a tourist destination, with pristine beaches in profusion. It also has palm trees aplenty. However, this does not differentiate Cuba from its Caribbean neighbours. What does this are the American 50s and 60s cars driving around Havana, with the Spanish colonial architecture giving the capital a real distinct feel. The image of admiring this while enjoying a world famous Cuban cigar is a picture that brings many to Cuba. The best time to travel to Cuba is December to April. However, Cuba can be visited successfully any time throughout the year. Visa required - Yes
