Holidays to Varadero

Cuba’s main resort, fun-filled Varadero occupies a narrow peninsula of white sand jutting out in to the warm waters of the ocean. The main town area offers numerous bars, shops and restaurants while hotels are dotted along the length of the glorious peninsula. Nearby Jibacoa is a much smaller resort, located half way to Havana, and perfect for a hotel-based holiday.
