Local info

About Varadero
The place to go if you want to do things on your holiday, Varadero is Cuba's best beach retreat for visiting the cool city of Havana, and is the island's most established resort, with everything from bars to boat trips. Attracting rich and famous holidaymakers, like Al Capone, it sits on a peninsula and has stunning views.

About Cuba - Varadero
No wonder Varadero is a big favourite with European sun-seekers. It’s got the lot. There’s the 21km beach for starters. Its white sands stretch from the north edge of the Hicacos Peninsula and go on and on. Most of this resort’s flashy hotels are lined along it, too, so you won’t have too far to pad from pool to aquamarine seas. When you’re not enjoying the shores, modern Downtown Varadero has lots on offer from shops and street markets to restaurants and leafy parks. And Havana and Montemar Great Natural Park are in easy day trip distance.
