Trinidad is a fantastic destination for those wanting to see more of Cuba; it hosts one of the Caribbean\u2019s famous tropical white sandy beaches at Playa Ancon and the hustle and bustle of its city &#8211; for anyone seeking both a laid-back and lively pace on their holiday.<\/p>\n<h3>Nature &amp; Wildlife in Trinidad Cuba<\/h3>\n<p>On Cuba\u2019s southern coast, your first stop should be Playa Ancon; just a 15-minute drive from Trinidad, this dreamy location plays host to a stunning stretch of sand lapped by turquoise waters, plus two luxury hotels flanking the beach. If you\u2019re a nature lover, one of the most famous places to visit while in Trinidad is the Topes De Collantes National Park, a huge nature reserve where you can hike or explore the beautiful views by horseback. Walk as far as the stunning cascading waterfall and natural pool where you can cool off with an afternoon dip![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;571&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>What to see<\/h3>\n<p>If you ever tire of the beaches (unlikely, we know) discover Trinidad\u2019s beautiful colonial town and its awe-inspiring architecture. For the best views of the town, climb the famous bell tower at the Museo de Historia Municipal, housed in an old mansion \u2013 or why not visit the crumbling church ruins at the Plaza de Santa Ana for an insight into Cuba\u2019s past? An authentic square that\u2019s generally tourist free. Got time to spare? simply navigate the pedestrianised cobbles of this colourful town at your own pace, passing local markets as you go. For a mixture of ruins, well-preserved colonial homes, and rolling countryside, visit the Valle de Los Ingenios. You can grab one of our local representatives and visit the once famous sugar mill of San Isidro de los Destiladeros whilst you\u2019re here, for those interested in the history of Cuba and its trades.<\/p>\n<h3>Food, drink &amp; nightlife in Trinidad Cuba<\/h3>\n<p>Hungry? You\u2019ll sample some of the best food in the country on your visit to Trinidad \u2013 especially if you\u2019re a seafood fan. Tasting the local cuisine is a great way to soak up the culture of a place, and you certainly won\u2019t be disappointed here \u2013 from rooftop venues to restaurants housed in grand colonial buildings and even local food provided in family homes, there\u2019s plenty of variety. Top tip: you\u2019ll find the most authentic places tucked away in the backstreets!<\/p>\n<p>Once your bellies are full, what&#8217;s a better way to wrap up the evening than by dancing the night away at Casa de la Musica? This popular outdoor hub is a must-visit if you like to move your hips to Caribbean music, with entertainment dotting the steps in front of the salsa school. With plenty of space to dance, plus a bar and a restaurant for refreshments, it\u2019s a perfect place to soak up the atmosphere \u2013 you might even learn some new moves!<\/p>\n<h3>Book your holiday to Trinidad Cuba<\/h3>\n<p>Booking your holiday to Trinidad couldn&#8217;t be easier. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovecuba.com\/destinations\/trinidad-holidays\">Love Cuba offer a number of exciting multi-stop tours<\/a> that cover this area.
