BY AIR
Almost all visitors to Cuba arrive by air, with scheduled
flights arriving from Canada, the Caribbean, Central and South America,
and Europe. The main gateways for US travelers continue to be Cancún,
Nassau and Toronto. There are direct flights available from the USA, but
US citizens will need the permission of the US Treasury Department,
which restricts travel to Cuba to journalists, researchers and a handful
of other groups. There's a US$20 airport departure tax.
BY BOAT
Thanks to the US blockade of Cuba, very few cruise ships call into Cuban
ports, and there are no scheduled passenger ships that service the
country. Private yachts regularly call into Cuba's plentiful harbors and
anchorages.
