Cienfuegos the pearl of the south

Our base in Cienfuegos offers all the services of a modern marina as a base for your sailing trip, but also the liveliness of a normal Cuban city, a hinterland with a varied offer in culture and nature, but without the seclusion of a "tourist ghetto". La Perla del Sur, the pearl of the south, this nickname carries the city quite rightly. The location on a ten nautical miles deep, highly articulated bay with a few hundred meters wide driveway makes Cienfuegos an important port. The trading port - above all sugar is exported from here and imported oil - is second only to Havana. Nevertheless, the city retains the beauty of its unique location and a rich architectural heritage, especially from the 19th century. The Teatro Tomás Terry, where Caruso has already performed, and the Palacio de Valle, villa of a turn-of-the-century Mudejar industrialist that is accessible to everyone as a restaurant, are among Cuba's most famous architectural monuments.

UNESCO World Heritage Site

Since July 2005, the historic center of Cienfuegos around the Parque Martí has ​​been included in the list of World Heritage Sites by UNESCO as an excellently preserved example of a 19th century colonial town.
