A sensory journey to the 1950s
Azure waters and iconic ports
The Cuban coastline is a paradise for sea lovers. The translucent waters are teeming with marine life, offering exceptional diving opportunities, while the coastline, dotted with islands and cays, invites exploration. Whether it's the Jardines de la Reina archipelago or the Canarreos Islands, each anchorage has its share of wonders.
Havana, the capital, is the ideal starting point for a Cuban adventure. Its historic port, sheltered by the El Morro fortress, welcomes yachts from around the world. Other ports like Cienfuegos, known as the "Pearl of the South" or Santiago de Cuba, offer a deep immersion into the Cuban soul.
Living history at every corner
The historical richness of Cuba is palpable. Navigators can wander through the cobbled streets of Trinidad, a UNESCO World Heritage-listed city or marvel at the colonial buildings of Camagüey. Each port of call is a journey through time, recounting the island's saga from Spanish conquistadors to the Cuban revolution.
Modern amenities for yachts
Although Cuba retains an old-world atmosphere, infrastructure for yachts is continually improving. Marinas like Marina Hemingway in Havana, Marina Gaviota in Varadero or Marina Cienfuegos offer modern facilities, ensuring a comfortable stay for crews and passengers.
Rum, salsa, and cigars, a revolutionary destination!
Cuba has long been isolated from the world, especially for yacht charters. But today, Cuba is opening its doors, and I assure you that it's time to visit.

Cuba pulses to the rhythms of salsa, son cubano, and rumba.

It's the perfect opportunity to mingle with the locals and feel the Cuban passion.
