and children who enjoy them of course under the supervision
of an adult .In Cuba beaches are public properties so you

on the sand. If there is a bad weather mainly in winter time
, the sea turns a bit rough and the life guards post flags
on the sand , if the flags are red , please do not swim in
the ocean , yellow flags mean bath wit caution green flag
or no flags means free bathing. We also recommend being careful
with large exposures to the sun without using solar protection
lotions or creams.
