What to Wear

• Everyone in Havana dresses very casually and simple, leave your expensive jewelry at home. Since the weather is warm lightweight natural fabrics such as linen and cotton work well.
• Bring one fancy outfit if you’re planning on going to a famous restaurant or Tropicana Show.
• Jeans and t-shirts also work (except in hot and humid months). Bikinis, shorts, sandals, sleeveless cotton dresses and shirts are the order of the day. Wear comfortable shoes to walk a lot.
• In winter, pack a jacket or light sweater for the cooler evenings.

(Always pack plenty of sunscreen)
