The most amazing place I've ever been was Cuba. Fidel has pretty well kept the country from industrializing and becoming commercially developed, and the result is that their beaches and jungles are pristine. There is truly nothing like skinny dipping in warm, clear ocean water without another soul in sight. Plus, they have great rum and cigars at cheap prices, if that's your thing. Although Cuba is on its way to becoming a tourist destination, its still easy to find quiet, untouched areas, especially if you keep away from the hotels. Plus, the US embargo keeps out most American tourists.

If you're American, nobody really cares if you go to Cuba, as long as you keep your head down when you're going back through customs. It's much easier than most people think.
