Earthquakes in Cuba — February 2026
1 earthquakes were recorded in Cuba during February 2026, an average of 0.0 per day.
1 reached magnitude 4 or above and 1 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 10 km.
The month's largest event in Cuba was a magnitude 5.5 earthquake near Maisí, Cuba on 08 February 2026 at 12:00 UTC. A magnitude 5.5 earthquake radiates roughly 2,682 tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.
That is below the Cuba monthly average of 3 events over the period we cover — a comparatively quiet month.
100% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). Almost everything here is crustal. That is characteristic of transform faulting or continental deformation rather than subduction — and it means shaking at the surface is strong for the magnitudes involved.
By band, the catalogue holds 1 in the magnitude 5 range.
That is 64% below the 3 events Cuba averages per month across the 4 months on record.
