Traveling to Cuba in August will allow you to live a true Cuban summer. You will be able to visit places full of history with a great cultural legacy, discover dreamlike natural environments and refresh yourself in the crystal clear waters of the wonderful beaches that this tropical paradise treasures.
Start your itinerary discovering the magic that Havana, its capital, preserves. In La Habana Vieja (Old Havana), the historic center of the city, you will find corners that reflect years of history and tradition, such as Plaza de la Catedral, Plaza Vieja, Plaza de Armas and Plaza San Francisco de Asís. Take a walk through Centro Habana (Havana Center) and the Vedado area, where the opulent architectural style of the residential area contrasts with the symbol of struggle that the Plaza de la Revolución and its famous murals evoke. You cannot leave Havana without strolling along the most famous Malecón in the world. Any time is a good time to pass through it, feeling the Havanan joy that radiates while the sea breeze refreshes the warm August air, but overall, the sunset will undoubtedly give you an exciting postcard that will be engraved forever in your memory.
Get to know Las Terrazas, Viñales and Soroa and discover new ranges of the green color that predominate in the landscape. Valleys, forests, rivers and extensive fields full of vegetation form magical trails where you will find peace and tranquility.
Cuba has many picturesque cities that are worth visiting. In Cienfuegos, also called the pearl of the South, the French heritage is reflected in the facades of its buildings, while Trinidad preserves a great colonial architectural heritage, which is why it is known as a ‘’ museum city ’’. In both, declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO, you can explore them on foot, step by step with the beauty of its cobbled streets, the tranquility of its environment and the warmth of its people. Located between the two cities, in the Sierra del Escambray, is the Parque Natural Topes de Collantes (Topes de Collantes Natural Park), a large ecological reserve with trails that cross charming corners and end in spaces immersed in the purest nature. The best-known enclave is El Nicho, a true tropical paradise with natural pools, caves and refreshing waterfalls, perfect to relieve the characteristic heat of August.
Enjoy the Cuban summer, relaxing on its idyllic beaches of fine white sand and crystal clear waters, which make it a unique destination. Varadero is the most popular seaside resort due to its proximity to Havana and its extensive coasts with a wide range of hotels. On the other hand, the Atlantic Ocean bathes the dazzling coasts of Cayo Santa María, Cayo Guillermo and Cayo Coco, the Caribbean Sea paints Cayo Largo del Sur turquoise.
In the far east is Santiago de Cuba, the second largest city and the oldest capital, which preserves a colonial stamp in which pastel colors predominate and form a captivating landscape. It was a witness to the beginnings of this country, which is why it keeps a great historical and symbolic heritage that cannot be missed, such as the old coffee plantations of the south.

The colors not only predominate in the depths of its coasts, but also in its streets, in the cars and in its landscapes. In August, Cuba becomes even more colorful thanks to its carnivals. The Carnaval de La Habana (Carnival of Havana) and the Carnaval de Holguín (Carnival of Holguín), a city located in the south of the country, are some of the most popular and most looked-forward-to traditional Cuban festivals that you should not miss.

They are fascinating and exciting events where the idea is to enjoy. Its programs, lasting several days, include musical shows, recitals and gastronomy services.
During the first fortnight in Baracoa, in the province of Guantánamo, also known as the First City of Cuba, the Fiesta de las Aguas is celebrated in homage to the anniversary of Our Lady of the Assumption of Baracoa, the first Cuban town, founded on 15 August 1511 under the command of Diego Velázquez de Cuéllar. It is one of the most important traditional events in the city that offers artistic, musical, gastronomic and literary activities, related to customs and local heritage.
At the end of August, in Havana, you will be able to participate in the Festival Internacional Timbalaye (International Timbalaye Festival), also known as the Festival Internacional de Rumba Cubana (International Festival of Cuban Rumba), developed in order to promote and enhance Cuban culture through its traditional music.

Cuba in August is equivalent to resting on the beach. Coinciding with the vacation season in many countries, it is one of the most sought after months due to its excellent climate. It is an ideal time for you to enjoy and get to know its spectacular and infinite fine sand beaches and immerse yourself in the warm and transparent waters of the Caribbean Sea. Since the temperature remains warm, between 23 and 32ºC, the sea will be the perfect ally to cool off on the hottest days. Despite the abundant but brief rains characteristic of this season, which is more humid than that between October and April, the sky clears quickly, giving rise to the sunrise and the possibility of enjoying incredible days in the open air.
