By Sea
Ferries
There are no ferry routes to or from Cuba, even though passenger links between the United States and Cuba have been permitted since mid-2015.
Cargo
Cruises
Until recently, only non-American companies were allowed to include Cuba in their itineraries, due to the US embargo. As a result, few cruises visited the island. However, since early 2016, the situation has changed, and there are now more or less regular cruise routes between Florida and Cuba. In short, the market has been "boosted," and the number of cruise passengers stopping in Cuba is expected to increase significantly in the coming years.
