Moscow, Dec 27 (Prensa Latina) Oscar Enriquez, representative of the Cuban Tourism Ministry (MINTUR), highlighted on that Varadero beach resort remains the most popular Cuban destination for Russian tourists.

Speaking to Vzgliad online newspaper, Enriquez noted that the choice of the famous resort by Russian tourists is primarily due to its well-developed hotel infrastructure and its extensive white-sand coastline.

“Varadero is Cuba’s main beach, recognized as one of the five best in the world, and is the most famous and popular destination among Russian tourists,” Enriquez stated, adding that the resort boasts more than 20 kilometers of white sand beaches and turquoise waters.

Besides Varadero, Russians actively choose Jardines del Rey resort, in central Cuba, and the islands of Cayo Coco, Cayo Guillermo, and Cayo Santa Maria are also popular.

Holguin province also stands out together with Cayo Largo del Sur, off Cuba’s southern coast, and of course, Havana, the capital of the country, is also among the most popular destinations.

The MINTUR representative noted that Cuba offers a variety of recreational options for Russians, not limited to beaches.

The country offers opportunities for water sports, ecotourism, and cultural itineraries, including trips to the Vinales Valley; Topes de Collantes, a nature reserve park in the Escambray Mountains range, and excursions to sites associated with US writer Ernest Hemingway.
