Curious about the sounds that are shaping Cuba’s music scene today? These artists are blending traditional Cuban rhythms with fresh, contemporary styles, creating music that's as vibrant and diverse as the island itself.

Reparto music is Cuba’s homegrown answer to the reggaeton craze, and it’s the heartbeat of Cuban neighborhoods! The word "Reparto" literally means "neighborhood," and this genre is the vibrant soundtrack pulsing through the homes of Cubans everywhere.

Big shout out to the communities of Cerro, Jaimanitas, Santa Fe, and Guanabacoa for helping us tap into the best of contemporary Reparto!

Did you know Cuba’s coral reefs are some of the best preserved in the world?

Due to Cuba’s relative economic isolation over the last 60 years, the waters that surround it have retained very low levels of pollution. Limited fishing also means that essential predators have kept the reefs performing at their optimum capacity.

One of the best places to sample Cuba’s stunning underwater world is at Maria la Gorda at the western-most point of the island, or on Cayo Levisa, a tiny island just off the west coast.

20/06/2024

The recent news that Cuban entrepreneurs can now open and use U.S. bank accounts online for financial transactions has been causing mixed opinions and confusion. The idea is to promote internet freedom and support Cuba's private sector. We asked Cubans what they thought, and here's what they said:

"I think it's a way to launder money to the small and medium-sized enterprises."

"There is a lot of caution with that because, if the government changes over there, they freeze your accounts, and you lose the money."

"My opinion is very good. But it is news that originated in the U.S. In Cuba, they have only criticized it and said it's not the help Cuba needs."
