On last December 26, 2000, Excellences magazine pursued the aim in its 27th edition of publishing a special issue dedicated to Cuba, specifically to promote Camagüey province and especially Camagüey-Santa Lucía Beach tourism resort.

The presentation of this issue was made in this province and attended by directors of enterprises and managers all the tourism entities there based as well as by the First Secretary of the Party in Camagüey province, Salvador Valdés Mesa; the President of the Provincial Government, Mercedes Escuredo Olazabal and the Delegate of the Ministry of Tourism (MINTUR), Víctor Pérez Escobedo, among others were representatives of Cubanacán Group and Palmares, executives from VIP ASISTANCE of ASISTUR, from AMISTUR Cuba S.A., from Golden Tulip Parque Central and from Aerogaviota, they all from Havana city and were welcome by the staff of Excellences magazine. A special satisfaction was expressed by them all since on this issue appeared, a celebrated representative of the Cuban culture, the poet Carilda Oliver, linked to the figure of Ernest Hemingway—who largely sailed along the cays on the North of Camagüey province. Víctor Pérez, Delegate of MINTUR stated: "This is an excellent opportunity to show the world the enormous possibilities of the largest province of Cuba. This issue No. 27, dedicated to Camagüey locals, places us in an outstanding level, at the height of the best tourism destinations of the Caribbean. Thanks to Excellences, the most important European markets will know at the beginning of 2001, the cultural and tourism program and many regional products that have been already introduced in the demanding travel circuits toward the Caribbean. Camagüey and Excellences have achieved a successful tangible symbiosis which now started with promising perspectives for both parties. We think that there is no better conclusion for the year 2000.
