What items are hard to get in Cuba?
What items are hard to get in Cuba? Pharmacies are almost empty and medication is hard to come by. These days, a growing black market on the internet is one of the few places where Cubans can find commodities such as antibiotics, soap or toilet paper. Cuba is certainly no stranger to food shortages and a lack of access to basic items.

Cuba offers more budget-friendly options in destinations like Varadero and Holguin, while Mexico provides a wider range of all-inclusive experiences in Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and Puerto Vallarta.
