Prior to the Castro Revolution, Cubans freely visited California and Californians returned the favor by visiting Cuba. For the last 40 years, travel, trade and friendship between California and Cuba has been severely restricted.

As California and Cuba enter the New Millennium, California Cuba hopes to find points of common interest between California and Cuba which can be pursued legally under current USA laws, rules and regulations regarding Cuba. These areas include information exchange, media, and licensed sales of food and medicine to Cuba. We hope recent visits of USA Senators, Congressmen and Governors to Cuba pave the way for more flexibility in USA Cuba relations in the near future.
