As a cat, Guantanamo is like a maze of hidden corners and cells. You'll need your whiskers to navigate it!

And like a cat, you'll want to stretch out your paws in the sun on one of its many beaches.

Mindful meoweler tips

Guantanamo Bay Naval Base is not a tourist destination

It is closed to the general public and only accessible to authorized personnel.

The base is surrounded by a fertile forest with a marine ecosystem.

Opportunities for hiking, fishing and bird-watching can be found.

Cuban culture is prevalent in the area surrounding the base.

Visits to the city of Guantanamo provide opportunities to engage with locals.

The abandoned Camp X-Ray, infamous for its use as a detention facility, remains as a stark reminder of history.

Visitors can view the site from outside the fence line.
