Camagüey Province

The province extends across 15,413 square kilometers of predominantly flat terrain, with sandy beaches along the northern coast and numerous cays in the south.

The region was established as a province in 1514 at Nuevitas before relocating inland to its current capital location in 1528.

The province maintains a strong ranching tradition with regular rodeos, reflecting the significant role of cattle farming in the local economy.

The territory connects to major Cuban cities through the Central Highway and contains the Ignacio Agramonte International Airport for domestic and international flights.

The Jardines de la Reina archipelago along the southern coast contains extensive coral reefs and marine ecosystems spanning 150 kilometers.
