The Coast Guard intercepted a small boat Sunday, about 23 miles north of Havana.
Thirty-six men and women on the boat were rescued and brought to safety.
One passenger was airlifted to the hospital because of chest pains.
The migrants were given food, shelter and a medical evaluation before being returned to Cuba.
