Atmosphere
Caletone is a great little town, packed in the summer with vacationing Cubans and deserted in the winter months. Saw waves there in July, not sure of conditions in the winter but it looks like it has potential. Faces NE so should catch winter swells that get through the Bahamian chain. Plus your in Cuba! Cool people and fascinating history.
