One of its special characteristics is the imposing coral barrier that protects it, with almost 400 kilometers long, regarded among the major in the Caribbean, behind the Australian Great Coral Wall. It was Diego Velázquez —about 1513 and 1514— who christened the archipelago, located between the island of Cuba and the Old Channel of Bahamas, with this name, in honor of Fernando el Católico, king of Spain that time. Some chronicler asserted that he did such designating as a counterproposal of that of Christopher Columbus when he named the southern archipelago with the name of Jardines de la Reina, in honor of Her Majesty Queen Isabel of Castile.

  • Insular Than Most Islands, It's a Land of Antique Towns, Timeless Landscapes
    More insular than most islands, it’s a land of antique towns, timeless landscapes, pristine beaches and hothouse culture. Now, a country drenched in Cold War-era nostalgia is poised on the verge of a full-scale, 21st-century tourist invasion. Let’s see what we’ve been missing — and what we have to look forward to. CUBA: LOST and FOUND TEX T AND PHO T OGRA P HY BY CHRIS T O P HER P. BAKER I’m in the mezzanine bar of Havana’s chic, new Hotel Saratoga. The hotel has been open barely a week, and I’m admiring its 21st- century sophistication, reminiscent of trendy digs in New York or London. The elevator doors part, and a muscular young man steps out. He’s naked except for a towel around his waist, and water from the rooftop pool puddles up as he slips fish-like through the bar and into the lobby. Slack-jawed, I look on as he saun- ters toward the front doors, intent, it seems, on exposing himself to Cubans strolling along Paseo de Martí. The hotel’s desk clerk runs an intercept. “Excuse me, sir,” the clerk says respectfully in near-perfect English. “We don’t allow guests in the lobby dressed in towels.” “Yeah, I know!” the guest, a yanqui, replies with disdainful dismissal. I feel the yin and yang of déjà vu and premonition: The farcical scene recalls the BBC’s hilarious hotel-based sitcom Fawlty Towers, even as it portends possible things to come as a U.S. tourist invasion hovers on a not-too-distant horizon.

After two decades of relative food and utilities stability fueled by cheap Venezuelan oil, shortages of food, medicine, personal hygiene items, water, electricity and petrol have once again become a serious daily problem for millions of Cubans since the beginning of 2019, with hours-long queues and scuffles at markets reported across the island. Economic decline – 11 percent in 2020 – and rationing measures have been further enforced due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. As part of a major reform to a state-controlled economy, private businesses were allowed to operate in most sectors on 7 February, and restrictions were further eased in July when private businesses with up to 100 employees were allowed to operate in the wake of mass anti-government protests. In January 2020, the government announced rationing measures on liquefied gas, while rationing of electricity was announced earlier in July 2019, with power outages lasting up to 28 hours reported in Havana, Pinar del Río, Artemisa, Matanzas, Cienfuegos, Villa Clara, Sancti Spíritus, Las Tunas, Holguín and Santiago de Cuba.
