Your guide to Havana holidays

Top 5 things to do in Havana
Whether you want to tick off revolutionary landmarks or admire the city’s colonial architecture, there’s plenty to see on cheap holidays in Havana.
- Probably the most famous place in Havana is Plaza de la Revolución. The huge square is where Fidel Castro made many speeches during his presidency. Highlights include the government HQ and the Cuban Revolution memorials.
- One of the best ways to see Havana is in a classic car. Head to Plaza de la Revolución to find rows of 1950s cars in rainbow colours. Enjoy a chauffeur-driven tour of the sights or soak up ocean views as you cruise down the Malecon.
- Havana is a haven for art lovers. You’ll spot several galleries scattered across the city, including the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes. It’s stuffed with spectacular works dating from the 17th century.
- Catedral de San Cristóbal dominates the city’s skyline. It was finished in 1777 and made from coral stone - you can even spot marine fossils in its exteriors! Fun fact: Christopher Columbus’ body was housed here until 1898 when it was transferred to Seville, Spain.
- Whether you want to learn about the history of cigar making or get to grips with Cuba’s naval heritage, there’s a museum for everyone in Havana.

Outdoor attractions in Havana
From a long seaside promenade to lush inner city parks, you’ll be spoilt for choice with outdoor activities on Havana holidays.
- The Malecon is one of the best places for a stroll in Havana. The 8 kilometre esplanade follows the coastline and takes you past numerous sights, including the Hotel Nacional and Castillo de la Real Fuerza.
- Balmy weather and the crystal clear Caribbean Sea makes Havana a great jumping off point for beach breaks. Discover serene sandy stretches just beyond the city, such as Playa Bacuranao and Playa Santa Maria del Mar.
- You’ll spot a handful of leafy parks in Havana. Parque Almendares is west of the necropolis and home to huge tropical trees and several striking sculptures of dinosaurs.
- For a day trip which combines fresh air with sightseeing, get up early to visit Viñales Valley. The UNESCO region is dotted with ancient karst rock formations and home to some of Cuba’s oldest tobacco plantations.
- Castillo de San Salvador de la Punta sits halfway around the Malecon and in the mouth of the harbour. Once used to protect the city, the 16th century castle is now a fantastic viewpoint.
