Havana's Miramar district hosts Britain's embassy to Cuba where communist governance meets tourism boom attracting British travelers to Caribbean's largest island. The mission navigates complex diplomatic relationships between Britain and Cuba's authoritarian government, supports growing British tourism discovering Cuba's time-capsule appeal—Havana's crumbling colonial architecture and classic American cars, Viñales Valley's tobacco plantations, Trinidad's preserved Spanish colonial charm, and Varadero's beach resorts. British tourists flock to Cuba experiencing salsa culture, rum distilleries, Che Guevara revolutionary heritage sites, and warm Caribbean hospitality despite infrastructure challenges and economic hardships under US sanctions and communist inefficiency. The embassy assists British nationals navigating Cuba's dual currency system, provides emergency consular services for travelers facing health issues in limited healthcare system, and supports British businesses exploring opportunities as Cuba gradually opens economy. British companies engage in Cuba's tourism sector managing hotels and providing services, explore rum and cigar trade connections, and maintain limited commercial relationships constrained by US sanctions. The mission processes visa applications for Cuban musicians and cultural performers visiting Britain, facilitates educational exchanges, and maintains diplomatic engagement on human rights concerns. Staff coordinate with Cuban authorities on consular cases, support British travelers during emergencies including hurricane season evacuations, and assist expats working in Cuba's education and development sectors.
