The Caribbean harbors a jewel in the island of Cuba. This tropical paradise extends 750 miles and is a beautiful mix of mountain ranges and plains. There are over 200 bays and 289 sun drenched beaches to explore but Cuba means so much more than white sands, cigars and '50s cars; it is probably the warmth of the people that stands out most of all. Cuba is relaxed, even in the larger towns and is surprisingly free from mass- tourism. Music is also a big part of everyday life, and whether it's salsa, mambo, rumba or cha-cha-cha, streets and bars are filled with Latin rhythms - and visitors are encouraged to join in.
