Cuba is an intriguing country with a mix of Spanish colonial architecture and imposing communist statues, beautiful sandy beaches and green tropical plantations, teeming coral reefs and salsa on the streets, a vibrant culture to be seen and experienced. This is a Caribbean island but it is also a struggling communist country and there is little money invested in the infrastructure. Cuba offers a unique holiday experience and an opportunity to meet some wonderful vibrant people, especially for the traveller with an open mind and an adventurous spirit.
