Are there direct flights from the UK to Camagüey?

There are no year-round scheduled direct flights. TUI has operated seasonal flights from London Gatwick to Camagüey for Santa Lucía beach holidays, so it is worth checking winter schedules; at other times you will connect, usually through Havana.

Which airlines fly from the UK towards Camagüey?

TUI has flown seasonally direct from Gatwick. For connecting trips, Virgin Atlantic and TUI serve Havana from the UK, with an onward domestic flight or coach to Camagüey. European carriers via Madrid or Paris are another option.

How long is the flight to Camagüey from the UK?

A seasonal direct flight from London takes around 10 hours. Connecting via Havana means roughly 9 to 10 hours to the Cuban capital plus onward travel, so allow most of a day door to door.

Fares are generally lower outside the Christmas, New Year and Easter peaks. Late April, May and early November often combine reasonable prices with decent weather. The When to book chart above shows how prices move through the year.

Do UK travellers need a visa for Camagüey, Cuba?

How do I get from Camagüey airport to the city centre?

The airport is about 9km from the centre, a 15 to 20 minute taxi ride. Agree the fare in cash before you leave. Package holidaymakers usually have an included coach transfer, often onward to Santa Lucía.

Overview

Camagüey is Cuba's third-largest city and one of its most rewarding: a UNESCO-listed tangle of winding lanes, pastel churches and hidden plazas in the island's cattle-country heartland. It's the gateway to the Santa Lucía beaches on the north coast and stays far quieter than Havana or Varadero. Reaching it from the UK takes a little planning, but the payoff is one of Cuba's most genuine colonial cities.

Best time to fly to Camagüey

The dry season from November to April brings warm days, lower humidity and the best chance of steady sunshine. It is also peak season, so flights from the UK are busiest and dearest around Christmas, New Year and Easter. The Atlantic hurricane season runs June to November, with September and October the wettest and most storm-prone months. For a balance of good weather and softer fares, look at late April, May or early November, and check the When to book chart above to see how prices shift through the year.

Airlines and routes

There are no year-round scheduled direct flights from the UK to Camagüey. TUI has run seasonal flights from London Gatwick to Ignacio Agramonte airport for holidays to the Santa Lucía coast, with a flight time of around 10 hours, so it is worth checking whether your dates fall in the winter programme. Otherwise you will connect: fly to Havana with Virgin Atlantic or TUI (roughly 9 to 10 hours from London), then continue to Camagüey on a domestic flight or a long-distance coach. Routings via Madrid or Paris are also possible. Allow the best part of a day for any connecting itinerary.

Things to do in Camagüey

The historic centre is made for wandering, with a landmark square or church around almost every corner.

Plaza San Juan de Dios: the city's best-preserved colonial square, framed by an 18th-century church and former hospital.

Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de la Soledad: a striking brick baroque church at the heart of the old town.

Casa Natal de Ignacio Agramonte: the birthplace of the local independence hero, now a museum of colonial life.

Plaza del Carmen: a photogenic square dotted with life-sized clay sculptures of everyday townsfolk.

Ballet de Camagüey: catch a performance by Cuba's acclaimed second ballet company at the Teatro Principal.

At Ignacio Agramonte International Airport (CMW)

The airport sits about 9km south-east of the centre, a 15 to 20 minute drive. There is no train or public bus link, so you will need a taxi; agree the fare with the driver before setting off and pay in cash. If you have booked a package to Santa Lucía, a coach transfer is usually included and takes around 1.5 to 2 hours to the coast. Many city hotels and casas particulares will arrange a pick-up if you ask in advance.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Camagüey

Book ahead: for winter-season travel, booking roughly three to six months in advance usually secures the best fares, as the price charts on this page show.

Sidestep the peaks: Christmas, New Year and Easter carry the highest prices, so shifting your trip by a couple of weeks can save a good deal.

Stay flexible with dates: mid-week departures are often cheaper than weekends, and moving by a day or two can lower the cost.

Compare routings: weigh a seasonal direct service against connecting via Havana or a European hub, and price up nearby UK departure airports.

Travel essentials

UK travellers need a Cuban Tourist Card (tourist visa) to enter, valid for 30 days and extendable once in-country. You must also complete the online D'Viajeros form within 72 hours of arrival and hold travel insurance with medical cover, which can be checked on entry. The currency is the Cuban peso (CUP); foreign bank cards are unreliable, so bring enough cash in pounds or euros to exchange at official CADECA bureaux or your hotel. Tap water is not safe to drink, so stick to bottled. Note that visiting Cuba means you can no longer use the US visa-waiver ESTA scheme for later trips to the United States.
