Plaže na Boca de Miel

Our experience at this beach in Baracoa was less than ideal. While the beach itself was pleasant enough, we were unfortunately met with an unexpected danger. The beach is situated near the mouth of a river, and during rainstorms, the river water flow increases, causing a drop in sea water temperature. This drop in temperature attracts jellyfish, known as Agua viva or Agua mala, which are much more dangerous than those found in Italy. Regrettably, my girlfriend and several others we met at the nearby polyclinic were stung by these jellyfish, resulting in burns on their faces and bodies, as well as severe allergic reactions. We were forced to cut our vacation short as my girlfriend had to take cortisone and antibiotics to recover. Shockingly, there were no signs or warnings of this danger, even though the locals were aware of it. It's crucial to exercise caution when visiting this beach to avoid any potential harm.

If you happen to find yourself in Baracoa during your travels to Cuba, make sure to visit this beach. Despite being small, it stands out in a city where the beaches are typically black volcanic sand. Positioned at the mouth of the Miel river, you can reach it by walking east and crossing a bridge that can be either passable or impassable. Alternatively, you can hire a taxi. This hamlet was used as a filming location for Robinson Crusoe, and the beach is beautiful in its natural state. If you ask the locals, they may organize an excursion for you to see amazing formations from a balcony and end up in a lagoon within a cave. You can do all of this during the daytime. Additionally, you can take advantage of the opportunity to hire a resident to take you back to the city by boat through the mangroves, ending at the baseball stadium.
