I’ve been to Cuba 12 times. My advice for the bus stations is always show up the hour early to secure your spot. I always make sure to bring a backpack full of beer. Makes the wait more enjoyable! Love the videos

Varadero has the best beach in Cuba and possibly in the world. Blue water, prestine, and clean.

[@brunopoldrugovac9988]

I agree.. I travelled there 20 times and over the years, we have been to Cancun and Punta Cana.. no comparison lol

[@KMO325]

There’s an Afro-Cuban rumba band called Los Munequitos de Mantazas that are from the Mantazas region. That beach is strikingly blue!

[@mbash3073]

Sad to hear about you getting unwell at the end there Sly, hope you're ok brother. Wish you good health. Apart from that, what an amazing place! Added to the list for sure.

[@comrade916]

I have been to many countries.. In my experience, Cuba has the nicest beaches. They're clean and safe!! My favorite is Playas del Este which is just a short bus ride from Havana.. I hope to be able to return to Cuba some day.. I love the people, the culture, and to a certain extent, their government.. They're fighting the great Satan of the U.S. and they're still holding up after all these years!!

[@nofood1]

there's nothing this clean in Thailand (maybe Phi Phi Island) and even in Bali. Maybe it's because Asia gets so many tourists and a lot of industrial stuff around. The Caribbeans definitely have some of the nicest beaches in the world.

From what my mother in law tells me, its very hard for ppl in Cuba to get food. Was it a struggle for you to find food while u were there? Just out of curiosity since you said you didn't eat. I guess im wondering is it really that bad?

[@ceebgabe3603]

I just came back from Cuba. We ate at several different restaurants. Surprisingly they had bbq ribs, chicken and fish. The food was good too. It’s a beautiful place. We stayed in Miramar. I definitely want to go back.

how did you get into Cuba? I went in 2016 December and I went to the Cuban Embassy in DC and got a visa and flew from JFK with Jet Blue, but now I do not see anywhere to get the visas. Also, even when I got to JFK they had tourist visa at the airport for Cuba for $50 back in 2016

[@christianvazquez3219]

Yes it's only 2 hours away in car....I suggest you rent a car or pay a local to take you they charge way less..varadero is beautiful and the people are very friendly..you could rent a room there very cheap next to the beach.

Always looking for current intel on Varadero. With so many Cubans in the water there, I wonder what the rest of the town is like. Maybe Calle62 will actually clear away the tables and charis, get the live band back and have a proper street party like they used to have pre-virus?

Cuba looks beautiful and all to visit. But living there is a nightmare. Power outages, trash, crumbling buildings, oppression from freedom of speech, limited food, long lines, medical help can take forever, etc.

[@markrush2319]

Name me one country in the Caribbean were some form of poverty doesn't exist I was in Cuba in 2017 for 30 days and I rented an apartment in a Cuba's family home and we discussed ordinary life in Cuba on a daily basis and I ate where the average Cuban ate and took public transportation were their shortages and long lines certainly but people that criticized Cuba never mentioned the 60 year economic boycott of Cuba by the United States government. When in Havana I found no homelessness, no mass hunger no gun violence no drug traffic very little income inequality and I was never harassed or had to show identification one time. Lift the embargo and the Cuban economy will take off this is just my personal opinion from being in Cuba 🇨🇺.

[@tavroaar8173]

@@markrush2319 Not saying that there isn’t same problems in other places. There is definitely income inequality in cuba and there is also homelessness as well. I have had people begging in the streets in Cuba. Just that Cuba has a very oppressive government and has made it really hard for Cubans to live decently. That’s why many leave. Cuba is wonderful and one of the most beautiful island nations in the world ❤️.

[@mperez660]

@@markrush2319 so you were there for 30 days 😂😂😂 I was there for 20 plus years seen my family behind bars because they spoke their mind and let’s talk about equality because this one you are correct every one is dirt poor unless you have a family member living outside Cuba that can send you money but you know who doesn’t follow the rule of equality the Castro family they own the island, embargo ? Cuba could do business with 158 countries why they Don’t ? Because no country wants to do business with Cuba because they don’t pay and yes Cuba doesn’t hardly any violence in the street but the minute you cross that line against the government violence becomes present hard and swift, what a paradise 🤪🤪🤪

[@markrush2319]

@@mperez660 so you full of crap and you know it every one in Cuba gets a food card and the criminal justice system in America is racists and bigoted police shoot unarmed black men on a daily basis in America. You fled Cuba and gave up the right to determine anything in Cuba you think you are going to return to Cuba and regain your superior status in Cuba. You Cubans in Miami are known to discriminate against the Afro-Cubans in Miami and you want to do the same thing if you ever regain power in Cuba 🇨🇺 🤔. It is up to the Cuban people that stayed in Cuba to determine how they want to be govern and not you angry bitter and vengeful Cubans that fled Cuba. Try and do something to help the Cubans that are in Cuba today.
