Fill your vacation with tropical essence by traveling to Cuba in July, visiting the most important and emblematic places, places full of charm, and refreshing yourself on the most spectacular beaches in the Caribbean. Our experience and knowledge of the destination allows us to recommend all the places you must see so that you make the most of your visit.
The history of Cuba is reflected in many places that were protagonists in the changes that the country went through with time, such as the historic center of Havana known as La Habana Vieja (Old Havana), the wide and long Havana Malecón with its beautiful view of the Cuban coast. Or, simply meet the ever-cheerful Cubans who spread their flavor to all tourists.
Trinidad is also a city with a lot of history, which you can see in its high-level architectural heritage, a symbol of the economic boom of the sugar industry in the area. Today it is considered the museum city of Cuba, so do not hesitate to visit and walk through its cobbled streets.
The cities Cienfuegos and Camagüey, declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, like Trinidad, are other cities that you must visit. The first has an important French influence in its streets and traditions, and, on the other hand, the second offers you labyrinthine streets that will make you lose yourself among so much history that its corners carry.
Santiago de Cuba, in the southeast of the island, having been the capital of the country in ancient times, treasures places that were witnesses of the first colonies and gave rise to this nation. Baracoa is another destination where you should get lost, contemplating the beauty of its colonial architecture contained by mountain ranges and its beautiful beaches. The cultural richness is mixed with people with a charming accent that will add warmth and joy to your days, making you always feel at home.
Undoubtedly one of the main attractions is its beautiful beaches, where the turquoise of the sea merges on the horizon with the blue of the sky, enveloping you in an amazing panorama. Varadero is the seaside resort par excellence and the most famous, but you have many more offers to enjoy kilometers of beaches such as the Jardines del Rey. There you can enjoy Cayo Coco, Cayo Guillermo and Cayo Santa María. In addition to enjoying the sun and relaxing in its warm waters, you can dive and snorkel, thus venturing into the depths to observe the incredible coral barriers and various species that populate the seabed. Cayo Largo del Sur is another place that you have to see. Its kilometers of beaches, many of them still virgin beaches, will make you hallucinate with their beautiful landscapes in the middle of the Caribbean Sea.
In this charming country, the rhythm is not only marked by the music so characteristic of Cuba, but also by the sounds of nature. You can listen to them in Topes de Collantes, immersed in the Sierra del Escambray. Its incredible microclimate, with lower temperatures than the rest of the island and moderate humidity, make it a perfect place for hiking enthusiasts, where they can walk through lush nature to reach incredible waterfalls and waterfalls.
In the Sierra Maestra, you can walk through the highest peaks in the entire country, such as the Pico Turquino located in the heart of the mountain range, which borders 2,000 meters above sea level. Another important attraction is the Gran Piedra (Great Stone), a beautiful rock weighing more than 70,000 tons and is used as a natural viewpoint to observe the wonderful panoramic views that this incredible place offers you, surrounded by trees and nature.
Las Terrazas, in the province of Artemisa, is an ecological village dealing with tourism and sustainable development.You will be able to stroll along the Río San Juan (San Juan River) in rowing boats, walk along incredible trails and, above all, jump through the canopy inserted in the middle of the forest and observe the incredible landscape that surrounds you. Very close to Las Terrazas is the town of Soroa, where you can see the Orquideario de Soroa (Soria Orchidary), one of the largest in the world with more than 25,000 species distributed in the beautiful gardens of the place. Without a doubt, it is an activity you should do on your trip to Cuba.
To coincide with the residents' summer vacations, several typical events of cultural interest are held, such as Cuban carnivals, among other important dates for locals, which are part of the offer of activities for tourists to do. July is the ideal season to get to know Cuba and its culture from the inside, in addition to enjoying the attractions of the cities and beaches.
The first week of July, in Santiago de Cuba, the La Fiesta del Fuego (Fire Festival), also known as the Festival del Caribe (Caribbean Festival), takes place. It lasts several days, where the people and dancers go out to dance to the rhythm of local musical groups that play drums, trumpets and other instruments, producing melodies that the body cannot ignore. It is a true festival that exposes the origins of this culture through the expression of the original tribes, their colors, rhythms and dances, filling the city with bustle, joy and color, with thousands of tourists who dare to participate and let themselves be carried away by the rhythm. On the last day, the figure of a great devil is set on fire, representing everything negative, to remove the bad, leaving room for new and good things.
The party continues in Santiago de Cuba and also in Havana, with the arrival of the Cuban carnivals, one of the most important events of the year that the entire country awaits. Large floats full of color animate the public as they go through the main arteries of each city. People participating in the parade in flashy costumes move to the beat of the music, encouraging the spectators who respond with joy. These are days that are lived with great happiness, where people of all ages get together to have a good time, sharing dances, drinks and lots of fun.
July 26 is the Día de la Rebeldía Nacional (Day of National Rebellion), in memory of the assault on the Moncada Barracks, in which a group of militants led by Fidel Castro tried to overthrow the de facto government of Fulgencio Batista. Although it did not triumph, it marked the beginning of a series of confrontations that sought the freedom of the people, leading to the Cuban Revolution. These events are commemorated with three days decreed as national holidays, July 25, 26 and 27. Massive acts are usually carried out with speeches in honor of those struggles and subsequent triumph, with musical shows by local artists, where hundreds of Cuban flags are raised to claim the homeland. It is a very special time in which you can see the Cuban patriotic fervor in all its splendor.
With a tropical climate characterizing it, if you travel to Cuba in July you will find very pleasant warm weather, characteristic of summer. Temperatures are between 23 and 31 degrees, and the days are characterized by being very sunny despite the brief rains that usually occur regularly, so you should not worry about them. The temperature of the sea water is warm and bathing in it will be one of the most pleasant things you can do on your visit to this country. July is an ideal month to get to know Cuba in summer and cool off on its spectacular beaches. You should wear light clothing that allows you to walk comfortably and coolly when going on excursions, and a pilot or light coat that can protect you in case a rain surprises you. It is also recommended that you bring garments to protect from the sun such as a cap or hat, high factor sunscreen and sunglasses to avoid any hot flashes that interfere with the enjoyment of your Cuban vacation.
