When talking about Caribbean vacations, what probably comes to mind are white sand beaches, specialty cocktails and palm trees. We go in search of these attractions in the cradle of rum, Mojitos and cigars. Below is a selection of Cuba’s most beautiful beaches, places where Ernest Hemingway himself might have pondered his works.
The beach of Cayo Santa María was voted the second most beautiful beach in the world by TripAdvisor in 2021. That area is called Rosa Blanca de los Jardines del Rey (White Rose of the Royal Gardens) because of the combination of fine white sand and crystal clear water that these beaches offer. You can enjoy fantastic nature here as well. The beautiful island also offers a variety of hiking opportunities, particularly in the south, which is marked by lush vegetation.
