I've been to Cuba twice for a total of a month and really enjoyed it each time. Havana and Santiago are two of the safest cities in the world. It was the first time in my life I saw women strolling the streets at night often times by themselves with no fear. The Cuban people are absolutely wonderful.

The interview section with the locals is outstanding. It adds a special touch to your videos. Cheers.

@@milsedd yes absolutely because you got to live like an ordinary Cuban and believe it or not waiting for and using public transportation you got to actually meet and interact with every day Cubans 😄. All the time that I was in Cuba I never felt like a tourist. I was interested in the Cuban culture and the Cuban people. This is my opinion but if you just want to be a tourist and spend a few days or a week that is fine also but my plan was to return to Cuba and enroll in a Havana University but the coronavirus pandemic hit and I have not been able to return.

I have been at the beach many time and I have stayed at the Hotel Marazul like 25 times before Covid . Thanks for the memories. Cheers from Canada.

The coconut cocktail is called Saoco, very good and refreshing.

I have no clue how Cuba is today but back in the 90's, We look forward to visiting it every yr or every other yr due to the fact it blew our minds with how SAFE it was day or Nite.

I think that the best looking beach I've seen in all your videos.

Nice interviews with the local people. Grateful

The proud Cuban people. I wish you all my best.

That's I good one bro, I need to start using my Flight bene8

Yooooo i appreciate these video’s. My good friends i grew up with came over on the “Mariel” in 81. Political prisoners who taught us so much about Cuban culture. Anyway big ups bro keep the videos comin!

Santa maria,El Megano,guanabo beaches ⛱️ are not the same no more like back in the 1990s they used to be more clean and more fun!I was a kid back in the days and I remember being there with thousands and thousands of people! I left cuba 1994 never went back cause political problems with those running the show over there! But thank you and blessings to you!

Eh Sly! kudos to you for doing videos in English. You may not be aware but videos about Cuba in English are very rare. People dont realize Cuba is the safest and most educated of all 3rd world countries. People music, arts, culture is two thumbs up! Cuba needs more videos in English the international language of business. My next trip to cuba I will be doing the first vidoes in English of Santiago Baracoa etc.

Love it😃 The people, the sights, the interview, etc………

always went with a private taxi a little bit further on; the gay playa santa maria! less touristic yet great!

You haven't been to Guardalavaca in Holguin? Very similar to Varadero. In fact most of the beaches in the north coast are quite pretty.

Interesting clip enjoyed. Nice to get local input.

How much for the chairs/umbrellas?? I used to go there as a kid.

I went there on Saturday July 16 but it was crazy busy, there was no room even for a needle, I would love to find the lady for the massages but next time for sure, the food at the restaurants is very cheap for the tourists, lobster and fish at the same dish with a drink for about 10 USD...

Thank you Sly for a great video!

Awesome! I got to get back.

@Sly, It's been years since I returned to Cuba and this video has me motivated. Just wondering: aside from the bus ride, what are the costs, if any, for things like the lounge chair you sat on, the Saoco (coconut drink)? Is that a public beach - do they charge for entry? What about bathroom facilities? Last time I was there, there was no public restrooms at playa del este.

6:03 this drink is called Saoco.

As a brother, how receptive would they be to us in Cuba? Its on my list of places to visit.

in costa rica congri is called gallo pinto or rice and beans

what kind camera do u used to shoot nice video like that?

I remember Santa Maria is very similar to Varadero Beach. Of course Santa Maria is only a showcase of Varadero. Guanabo beach is the one you mentioned further East. When I went there was building just like a Gym with lockers and you will pay for one to store your clothes. There were showers also. I do not know if that public beach still exist. There is also several other beaches in that area. Bacuranao is very deep and the water looks green. It is before Santa Maria. Due East is Matanzas, I like a secluded beach there when you exit Matanzas going to Varadero Beach. The beach is called “güeyvaquita” it is small beach secluded between high rocks. If you have been to Encinitas in San Diego, it looks like that. I do not know if I spelled it right “Gueyvaquita” Varadero is the ultimate experience ! How long did you stay in Cuba?

Man, I want to life your life! Good work, Sly!

Cuban streets look clean .

I can not believe he did not offer you some croquetas so you could taste them !!! :):):):):) Cubans are F nice and friendly .

cerveza is the best in the beach.
