Are There Many Mosquitoes in Cuba?

Cuba does not have a notably large population of mosquitoes. You are more likely to be bitten in the evening, especially around sunset. They are more noticeable in places like wetlands and swamps, which you will encounter on trips to coastal parks like Ciénega de Zapata National Park and Punta Francés National Park. Remember to bring bug spray with you when you go hiking, horseback riding, or on trips to the beach.

Playa Santa Lucía

Playa Santa Lucía is a 12.5-mile (20-km) long beach along the northern coast of Cuba. The hotels here aren’t as nice as those on Cayo Coco, but they do provide travelers with easy access to a beautiful beach and colorful offshore reef.
