Current outbreaks and recommendations

Protect yourself against mosquitoes

In Cuba, there is a risk of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue and Zika. To reduce the risk, keep in mind:

Use mosquito repellent on skin and clothing
Wear covering clothing, especially in the evenings
Sleep under insecticide-treated mosquito nets

Stomach and intestinal infections are also common. Wash your hands often, avoid raw or undercooked food, and drink bottled water.

About Cuba

Cuba is the largest island in the Caribbean, offering a unique blend of history, music, and beach life. The country is known for its colonial cities, classic American cars, and the rhythms of salsa and son. Here you'll experience both the vibrant pulse of Havana and the more relaxed pace of the coastal towns.
