The Cuba Cruise took out of Port Canaveral, a short drive from Orlando. It sailed to Key West and then to Havana. There were many questions about whether or not we would be able to get off the ship and walk around freely in Havana. Yes there are some laws on the books that restrict US visitors in Cuba, but they are easily complied with. Don't let the cruise line force you into paying for an expensive shore excursion. We walked right off the boat with no problem.
