Resorts offer activities organized by their lively entertainment teams like water aerobics, beach volleyball, and dance classes. Non-motorized watersports like kayaking, sailing, and windsurfing are typically available free of charge, as well.

While Varadero is a quiet, laid back vacation destination, people looking for things to do in Varadero will find the basic excursions expected of a Caribbean island, here. Varadero\u2019s \u201cno frills\u201d attitude and non-Americanized feel is what brings people back to the town. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Adventure_and_Eco-Tourism\"><strong>Adventure and Eco-Tourism<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Skydive in Varadero at the Centro Internacional de Paracaidismo.

The diving area stretches 67 km and features over 20 sites that range from 4 to 35 meters from the surface. A dive here will present you with caves, tunnels, coral reefs, sponges, and tropical fish. The Center also offers a training program for various skill levels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visit the Saturno Cave for swimming and scuba diving or head to Ambrosio Cave to spot bats and ancient cave paintings. The Bellamar Cave is another beautiful option with tight spaces and many stairs to descend. A cave stop is part of some Jeep Safari excursion itineraries. These tours are not recommended for those with mobility issues or claustrophobia. Remember to bring water and running shoes (or water shoes) and beware of slippery surfaces.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/TripSense-VaraderoTravelGuide-Beach5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-17255\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/TripSense-VaraderoTravelGuide-Beach5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"799\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/TripSense-VaraderoTravelGuide-Beach5.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/TripSense-VaraderoTravelGuide-Beach5-300x240.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/TripSense-VaraderoTravelGuide-Beach5-768x614.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Book a trip to swim with the dolphins (and purchase a family photo or video to remember the experience) and enjoy an animated dolphin show at Delfinario, a great alternative for kids that is available from most hotels.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For nature-enthusiasts, take a self-guided tour of Varadero Ecological Reserve to see flora and fauna like birds, lizards, and cactus plants.

For cigar-lovers, Casa del Habano has top-quality cigars and humidors and a nice bar and coffee shop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Museo Municipal Varadero is an attraction that is arguably worth mentioning. Though this is a very small stop with not much to see, those who appreciate Cuban history and culture may want to take a walk through this old building.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For something unique to do in the evenings, enjoy the Cabaret Continental dinner and show at Hotel Internacional, which turns into a disco later in the evening.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Other_things_to_do_in_Varadero\"><b>Other things to do in Varadero<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several nightclubs available in Varadero off-site from the resorts that are often popular among travellers. Varadero\u2019s laid-back atmosphere makes travelling off the resort very safe. Popular nightclubs in the area include: <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">La Rumba, Pirate Cave, El Kastillito, and Mambo club.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shopping in Varadero is very limited to a few small markets: this is not a shopping destination, but <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/blog\/cuban-cigars\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cigar shopping<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on the resort, at the cigar factories, in Havana, and at the airport is very popular.

There is a double-decker tour bus that runs along the resort strip, for travellers interested in seeing several resorts or exploring the main tourist area of Varadero. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Food_in_Varadero_restaurants_and_dining\"><b>Food in Varadero: restaurants and dining<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Cuba has long-since been known as a destination that soars in stunning beaches, but lacks in authentic, flavourful food. That has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonelyplanet.com\/cuba\/travel-tips-and-articles\/getting-a-taste-for-cubas-food-and-drink-revolution\">changing in recent years<\/a>, particularly in Havana, as laws on private enterprise are relaxed and private restaurants continue to pop up.<\/p>\n<p>In Varadero, the majority of the restaurants and dining options are found on the resorts themselves. Larger resorts, especially those belonging to bigger chains like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tripcentral.ca\/vacations-packages_00_0N_JA_melia-jardines-del-rey.html\">Melia Jardines del Rey<\/a>, will treat your tastebuds to several cuisines, ranging from European, Caribbean, creole, and oriental. There are, however, local vendors, marketplaces, and some local restaurants for a true taste of Cuban cuisine, flavour, and authenticity. International food is popular, catering to the tourist crowds that visit the island, but Italian, fresh seafood, and specialty cut meats are also popular in the restaurant scene.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Varadero_Weather_when_to_visit_Cuba\"><strong>Varadero Weather: when to visit Cuba?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The most popular time to visit is during the winter months to escape the cold weather, though holidays like Christmas, New Years, and March Break see higher prices and bigger crowds. Winter daytime highs average 25C and nights cool down to around 18C.<\/p>\n<p>Hotel occupancy is lower in the summer months, when the weather is amicable back home and prices are lower. Keep in mind that May to October is wet season, with hurricane season peaking September and October.
