Going to Cuba, any advice??

Yes, bring Canadian money and exchange it at the airport. The exchange at the hotel is often worse. As far as I know, you can't get CUC at a Canadian bank. I'm leaving for Santa Lucia Friday. Hope you enjoy it.

Just wondering for the people who said they were going in April . How was it ,weather/activity wise i have 2 weeks off in july and was hoping to go to Cuba since Mexico don't seem like a logical place to go with all the violence towards Canadians in the past couple years.

It was awesome! I had more fun this time than last time 4 years ago. It was low season so it wasnt busy. The weather was perfect. Sunny but not too hot.
