OUR GUIDE TO the weather in the Sierra Maestra and the northeast
The wild mountain ranges of the Sierra Maestra are unspoilt and little visited, with an astounding range of flora and fauna. The arty fishing town of Gibara hosts a film festival in April. Temperatures are hot throughout the year, especially from June - November when humidity is high. Hurricanes can strike from August - November.
