The 1954 Literature Nobel Prize winner, Ernest Hemingway, seaman and indefatigable sport fisherman, lived in Havana, Cuba, for the last 22 years of his life. This great north American writer devoted part of his literary work to this country where he wrote many of his outstanding novels and short stories, met his closest friends, drank his best drinks and fished his biggest marlins. Places where his peculiar personality left its trace have been carefully preserved and are visited by people from all over the world. Located on the northwest coast of the island of Cuba, in front of the waters of the Gulf Stream and only 15 minutes from downtown Havana, is Marina Hemingway, considered one of the largest and best equipped marinas in the Caribbean, in an ambiance which keeps alive the memory of the renowned writer of "The Old Man And The Sea".
