All you need to know about sailing this beautiful island
Cayos & Beaches
Located between the Caribbean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, Cuba is the largest country in the Caribbean. When Christopher Columbus discovered the island in 1492, he said: “This is the most beautiful land one has ever seen.”
The archipelago comprises a principal island and multiple “Cayos” and rocky islets. Cuba’s stunning variety of landscapes, mixing mountains, agricultural valleys and endless sandy beaches make it a fascinating destination for sailors and other visitors.
Havana & Culture
Cuban cities such as Trinidad, particularly its capital, Havana, are renowned for their colonial architectural richness. UNESCO declared them both a “Patrimony of the Humanity” in 1982 to preserve their architecture and historical inheritance.
Cuba goes beyond any sailor’s dreams with its favourably warm climate year-round, steady winds, unique natural beauty, and open-minded, friendly people. The island also has a reliable nautical infrastructure, receiving well-aimed support from the government.
History & Heritage
About 20 marinas and nautical centres all around Cuba gladly welcome yachts under all flags and offer all possible services. The whole coast and off-lying islands are fully accessible to the sailor, with one exception. That area is Playa Giron, or Bay of Pigs, a scene of the ill-fated 1961 invasion to overthrow Fidel Castro.
Cienfuegos is one of Cuba’s largest and most prosperous cities, where the Dream Yacht Charter base is located. Filled with entertainment venues and eateries, the city is a hub of activity for shopping and soaking up Cuban culture. From the base at Cienfuegos, there are two main island groups to explore along the southern shore of Cuba.
