    Geography of Cuba 2

    The island is 1,250 km (780 mi) long and 191 km (119 mi) across its widest points and 31 km (19 mi) across its

    narrowest points. The largest island outside the main island is the Isla de la Juventud (Isle of Youth) in the

    southwest, with an area of 2,200 km2(850 sq mi).

    Physical geography

    Cuba from space.

    Cuba is located 77 km (48 mi) west of

    Haiti across the Windward Passage,

    21 km (13 mi) south of the Bahamas,

    145 km (90 mi) south of Florida,

    210 km (130 mi) east of Mexico, and

    140 km (87 mi) north of Jamaica.

    Cuba is the largest country by land

    area in the Caribbean. Its main island

    is the seventeenth-largest island in the

    world by land area. The island risesbetween the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. It is bordered on the north by the Straits of Florida, on the

    northeast by Nicholas Channel and the Old Bahamas Channel. The southern part is bounded by the Windward

    Passage and the Cayman Trench, while the southwest lies in the Caribbean Sea. To the west, it reaches to the

    Yucatan Channel, and the northwest is open to the Gulf of Mexico.

    More than 4,000 islands and cays are found in the surrounding sea and bays. The southern coast includes such

    archipelagos as Jardines de la Reina and the Canarreos. The northeastern shore is lined by the Sabana-Camagey

    Archipelago, which includes Jardines del Rey and is composed of approximately 2,517 cays and islands. The

    Colorados Archipelago is developed on the north-western coast.

    Terrain

    Terrain is mostly flat to rolling plains, with rugged hills and mountains in the southeast. The lowest point is the

    Caribbean Sea at 0 m (sea level) and the highest point is Pico Turquino at 1,974 m (6,476 ft), part of the Sierra

    Maestra mountain range, located in the southeast of the island.

    Other significant mountain ranges are Sierra Cristal in the southeast, Escambray Mountains in the center of the

    island, and Sierra del Rosario in the northwest. White sand beaches (most notably in Varadero[3]

    ), as well as

    mangroves and marshes can be found in the coastal area. The largest is the Zapata Swamp, with over 4,520 km2

    (1,750 sq mi).

    Cuba has negligible inland water area. The largest natural water mirror is Laguna de Leche at 67.2 km2(25.9 sq mi),

    while the man-made Zaza Reservoir, at 113.5 km2(43.8 sq mi), is the largest inland water surface by area in the

    country.

    Natural resources

    Main article: Economy of Cuba

    A tobacco field in Pinar del Ro.

    Natural resources include cobalt, nickel, iron ore,

    copper, manganese, salt, timber, silica, oil and

    petroleum. At one time, the whole island was covered

    with forests and there are still many cedar (Cedrela

    odorata), chechem (Metopium brownei), mahogany

    (Swietenia mahagoni), and other valuable trees. Large

    areas were cleared to grow more sugarcane, and so few

    trees remained that timber had to be imported.

    The most important Cuban mineral economic resource

    is nickel. Cuba has the second largest nickel reserves in

    the world after Russia.[12]

    Sherritt International, a

    Canadian energy company, operates a large nickel

    mining facility in Moa, Cuba. Another leading mineral resource is cobalt, a byproduct of nickel mining operations.Cuba ranks as the fifth largest producer of refined cobalt in the world.

    Petroleum is extracted on Cuba's northern shore, in the provinces of La Habana and Matanzas. Recent petroleum

    exploration has revealed that the North Cuba Basin could produce approximately 4.6 billion barrels

    (730,000,000 m3) to 9.3 billion barrels (1.4810

    9m

    3) of petroleum. As of 2006, Cuba has now started to test-drill

    these locations for possible exploitation.[13][14]

    The petroleum is of low quality, and used for energy generation only.

    Sugarcane was the most important part of the economy in Cuba's history, and is still grown on large areas. Extensive

    irrigation systems are developed in the south of Sancti Spritus Province. Tobacco, used for some of the world's

    cigars, is grown especially in the Pinar del Ro Province.

    Climate

    Cuba's climate is tropical and moderated by trade winds. The dry season lasts from November to April and the rainy

    season from May to October.

    Cuba is an archipelago of islands located in the Caribbean Sea, with the geographic coordinates 213N, 8000W.

    Cuba is the principal island, which is surrounded by four main groups of islands. These are the Colorados, the

    Sabana-Camagey, the Jardines de la Reina and the Canarreos. The main island of Cuba constitutes most of the

    nation's land area or 104,556 km2(40,369 sq mi) and is the seventeenth-largest island in the world by land area. The

    second largest island in Cuba is the Isla de la Juventud (Isle of Youth) in the southwest, with an area of 2,200 km2

    (850 sq mi). Cuba has a total land area of 109,884 km2(42,426 sq mi).

    The main island consists mostly of flat to rolling plains. At the southeastern end is the Sierra Maestra, a range of

    steep mountains whose highest point is the Pico Real del Turquino at 1,974 metres (6,476 ft). The local climate is

    tropical, though moderated by trade winds. In general (with local variations), there is a drier season from November

    to April, and a rainier season from May to October. The average temperature is 23.1 C (73.6 F) in January and

    27 C (80.6 F) in July.

    Geography of Cuba 6

    Cuba lies in the path of hurricanes, and these destructive storms are most common in September and October.

    Havana is the largest city and capital; other major cities include Santiago de Cuba and Camagey. Better known

    smaller towns include Baracoa which was the first Spanish settlement on Cuba, Trinidad, a UNESCO world heritage

    site, and Bayamo.

    Administrative subdivisionsMain article: Provinces of Cuba

    Level 3 administrative divisions in Cuba.

    Cuba is divided into 15 Provinces and

    one special municipality (Isla de la

    Juventud). The provinces are further

    subdivided into level 3 subdivisions,

    called municipalities (Spanish:

    Municipios), of which there are 168

    following the 2010 administrative

    redistribution.[16]
