If you are a nature lover, you shouldn’t miss the chance to visit Baracoa, one of top Cuba holiday destinations, on your next Cuba vacations. Incredible views, amazing landscapes with high mountains, lush vegetation, lots of palm, cocoa, banana and coconut trees, a wide variety of ferns, a great rainfall and many rivers are just some of Baracoa attractions. Alejandro Humboldt National Park, Maguana beach, the Yunque (Anvil) of Baracoa (a flat top mountain, symbol of the city), and ´La Farola´ viaduct, are some of the places to visit.
Baracoa city boasts an impressive system of fortifications built in the 18th century. A visit to Matachin Fort (today Baracoa Municipal Museum), Punta Fort and Sanguily Fort (now El Castillo Hotel), an ancient fortress and one of the main tourist attractions in the city, from which you can enjoy the view of the bay and El Yunque, will give an idea about how Baracoa was during Spanish colonization.
If you enjoy diving you will never regret visiting Baracoa on your Cuba holidays and admiring the city’s underwater world
The best way to get to Baracoa is renting a car.
Moa-Baracoa highway and La Farola viaduct (1968 feet above the sea level), offer you a spectacular view of the mountains and give access to the city. You could also fly to Gustavo Rizo Airport from almost any other airport in Cuba.
There are many beautiful places in Cuba and nature in the island is just spectacular. Some people say that if you travel to Cuba you can’t miss Baracoa because there you can find the most beautiful landscapes in Cuba. I agree, admiring the view from Baracoa mountains or a sunset at the bay is an experience that will last forever.
If you are planning to travel to Cuba and visit Baracoa on your Cuba holidays, check the list of Baracoa hotels, choose one for your next Cuba vacation and get ready to go.
