Untouched, unspoiled
Tantalizingly close but frozen in a bygone era, Cuba's cobblestone streets and deep-
rooted culture are as inviting as the people. This is a special moment in history when
you can still explore a place that has remained isolated and untouched by mass
tourism and foreign involvement. SCSA joins the Texas Rally to Cuba on a unique
people-to-people rally round-trip sail from Key West, Florida to Havana, Cuba this
June!
Be an Ambassador - and maybe just a
"little bit of a tourist"
People-to-people travel is an initiative allowing U.S. citizens
to legally travel to Cuba as “true ambassadors” to:
participate in cultural experiences;
have direct contact with the Cuban people to learn
about their way of life;
teach Cubans about the American way of life; and yes -
enjoy beautiful sights, sounds and flavors of this un-
spoiled Caribbean gem.
Sailing experience at its best!
What a fantastic opportunity to make two 100-mile Gulf Stream crossings and add excellent experience to your
resume by sailing round trip from Key West to Havana! You will gain valuable open ocean experience, practice
night sailing, fine-tune your navigation skills and sail in potentially new conditions for your skill set. Plus,
ambassadors on this trip will enjoy opportunities to:
experience the fun and excitement of Key West;
participate in a tour of Havana;
visit a Cuban tobacco field and/or Cuban rum factory;
educate and entertain Cuban locals about sailing via the
Race Down The Shoreline; and explore Hemmingway House,
the farmers market and many other beautiful places in Cuba.
