New ZealandVinales Valley
Vinales Valley
To the west of Havana, some 165kms from the capital, lie the green hills of the Pinar del Rio province. This is tobacco-growing country, with an old-fashioned agrarian economy where farmers in spurs trot their horses down dusty tracks, plough the rust-red earth with oxen and sow tobacco seeds by hand.
The valley of Vinales, with its karst limestone peaks creating dramatic scenery, is a hypnotically beautiful Eden and one of the best day-trips or weekend breaks to make from Havana and a private-sector tourist economy has spruced up old-fashioned country Cuban life up for international appreciation. The porches are neatly swept, the tiny high-street bustles with activity and the people are extra friendly in that typical country-folk way.
For visitors, trekking, horse-riding, and biking in the valley are the most popular past-times. After an active day out, a delicious mojito awaits you as you rest your weary limbs in a rocking chair on the front porch, enjoying the mouth-watering smells of your dinner of your home-cooked meal being prepared for you.
For beach lovers, Cayo Jutia is a 65 km drive to the north of Vinales with plenty more stunning scenery to enjoy along the way. Here you will find 3kms of powdery white sand with options to snorkel and scuba-dive for those who want to discover the marine life below the surface of the stunning aquamarine waters More likely, you will just want to lie back on a beach lounger with a good book and another delicious local cocktail as the waves lull you into a perfect state of relaxation.
