Luxury Yacht Charter Cuba
Yacht Charter in Cuba
Cuba is the largest of the Caribbean islands, with more than 2,900 miles of beautiful coastline which has up until now remained pretty much off the yacht charter map. However, a great deal of investment has recently been pumped into the country’s yachting industry, and there are now a considerable number of excellent marinas equipped to cater for the yacht charter business. The island boasts endless white sandy beaches lapped by crystal clear waters which are perfect for snorkeling and diving.
