About Havana
Havana is the capital of Cuba and its main port, political centre and cultural heart. Its colonial old town, Habana Vieja, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the city is famous for its seafront Malecón, classic American cars, music and cigars, making it the first stop for most visitors to the island.
Havana keeps Cuba Standard Time, UTC-5, in winter and switches to Cuba Daylight Time, UTC-4, in summer. That puts it on the same clock as Miami and New York for most of the year. Travellers should note that internet and phone connections can be less reliable than elsewhere in the region, so it is wise to confirm call times in advance.
