Mayabeque Essentials

Mayabeque’s landscape is defined by the dramatic Vía Blanca coastal road and the rugged Escaleras de Jaruco hills. This collection features the Bacunayagua bridge—Cuba’s highest engineering marvel at 110 meters—overlooking the Yumurí Valley, alongside the coral-rich shores of Jibacoa and the river mouth at Abra de Canasí.
