I know that Cuba and the United States has not, seen eye to eye for many years,it's just that I have read many interesting things about Cuba.I know that it is a communist country, and many things can happen in a nation where the majority of people are Mulatto,which
makes it interesting.Color in countries like Cuba,Santo Domingo(now Dominican Republic)and Puerto Rico does not really matter,political status matters more to these people,rather than ethnicity/race.People in Cuba are use to mixing with in the races for centuries,which is something America is just starting to get use to.

We actually have a Navy Base on the East Shore of Cuba. Many people go there, because of the excellent Hospitals.
The link below will explain that the U.S. prohibits Americans to travel to Cuba, but, you can get a License under certain circumstances.

There are so many answers ... but the answer is technically, no, it is not legal to visit Cuba as an American citizen ... no matter how you arrive there (through another country or whatever).
However, there are exceptions ... you can be granted a specific license for the trip if you have a need. Cuban ex-patriates can visit family, medical personnel and associated travelers on humanitarian trips, professional and college athletes, flight crews on official business, journalists. Bear in mind, all these travelers still need a specifc license for the trip which is issued by the State Department.
See the travel.gov website.

Nope. It's somewhat ridiculous, but it is illegal for an American Citizen to visit Cuba WITHOUT special permission from the U.S. Government. I could theoretically get in with my Canadian Passport, but as an American dual Citizen could face Criminal Prosecution upon entering the U.S.
The reasoning for this is the embargo with Cuba. Preventing Americans from going to Cuba prevents them from spending their dollars there. This has received more attention as of late, so I wouldn't be surprised if the embargo were lifted in the next 5-10 years.
As far as I'm aware, it's perfectly legal to go to places like Iran, North Korea, (although THEY may not let you in) and Cuba is the only place as an American you are not lawfully permitted to visit.

No it is not legal for an American to visit Cuba. It is even illegal if you go to another country first to gain entrance to Cuba.

If I pass out due to heavy drinking, fall in the water in the Keys and float to Cuba, it's legal.

You can go to Cuba, but cannot fly direct, and once your in Cuba if youre kidnapped or anything happens to you the US will do pretty much nothing to help you

America is one of the few countries that makes it illegal to visit it, the rest of the world is quite civilised, and will happily accept you as a tourist, but will America take you back again?
