5 CUC entry, and an enthusiastic guide who'll tell you all about this cave system in several languages, at the same time! If you're worried about bats flying around you, don't they only eat insects and the highlight is the amount of cave paintings with a compass pointing north. If you're in Varadero, it's well worth a trip on the buss.

This was my second visit to Cardenas and I'd love to go back. It is real Cuba without the masses from Havana. Horse drawn carriages, beautifully colored buildings, cool little shops and restaurants and bars to check out. It's really a great town.

This park sits on to of a hill. It has the Moserrate Chapel and a great view on one side of the whole city of Matanzas, the blue bay and on the other side, the Yumjri Valley. Great place to just relax a get away from the noise of the city. I highly recommend a visit when visiting Matanzas. You can reach it by Taxi and you can negotiate for the taxi to come back to pick you up at a certain hour. It should not cost any more than 4.00 CUC each way. 1 CUC = 1 US Dollar

We always make it a point to stop my for a stroll around and a drink or two. Nice restaurants in the park as well.

Entertaining boat ride from the Crocodile Zoo to the Taino village on the islands across the lake. A tour of the statuary explains their pre-columbian life. We saw pelicans in trees and even Ospreys that migrate for winter down here (kinda like us). Giftshop, Bar and Banyos, what else do you need!
7. San Severino Castle

This ancient fortress in Matanzas is worth the visit. The guide gives a great explanation on the slave trade in Cuba, the building of the fortress/castle and the various revolutions that have taken place. Well worth the time to visit!
