So, you won\u2019t need much persuading to head into the lush hills, dip into the bluest of seas, or to stroll the streets of her beautiful ancient towns and cities. With year-round sunshine, you\u2019ll have time for all these activities found from west to east across the island!<\/p>\n<p>With a coastline of 3,500 miles, and dozens of dazzling white sand beaches, you\u2019ll find plenty of popular places and hidden spots from where to <strong>snorkel<\/strong> the turquoise seas and coral reefs of the Atlantic and Caribbean.

Hire bikes in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/destinations\/havana-holidays\">Havana<\/a> to wheel down the Malec\u00f3n coastal road or pedal to Playas del Este beaches, a short ride away. In Baracoa, your own wheels will take you to the wild beaches and archaeological sites of this exciting Atlantic coast. Travelling further?

The <strong>best dive spot in Cuba<\/strong>, hands down, is Gardens of the Queen. A dream trip sees a visit on a liveaboard where you\u2019ll dive with lemon, nurse and Caribbean reef shark and giant Goliath Grouper.
