Weather & climate in Cuba
The climate in Cuba is sub-tropical and the weather is usually hot throughout the year. From December to April it is typically very dry and sunny and marks the best time of the year to enjoy a Cuba holiday.

Temperatures rarely drop below 20 degrees Celsius, so make sure you pack your swimming costume and sunscreen!
