Summer is an incentive for tourists, both Cubans and foreigners, to enjoy their vacations in the island's white-sanded beaches of crystal-clear water.

July and August, the hottest months of the year in Cuba, are full of activities in the fields of sports, culture and the social life in general, even for those who prefer to stay home and watch television.

Traditional tourist options are complemented by a hotel infrastructure that provides accommodation, gastronomic offers and extrahotel activities.

Summer is also a period to make plans, including meetings with friends and going to the movies, theaters and nightclubs, or just to walk the streets of major Cuban cities and enjoy a pleasant nightlife.

In summer, many visitors enjoy the air-conditioned atmosphere in restaurants serving Cuban food, where they can taste a wide range of dishes from local cuisine.
