If you want to see a really unique part of Cuba, unspoiled by tourism & at limited cost, you should try Cabanas Campismo Yacabo Abajo. There are 18 ensuite cabins at Campismo Yacabo Abajo, each of which sleeps between four & six people.
Though close to the Caribbean Sea, Yacabo Abajo is in one of Cuba’s few semi-desert areas & provides fascinating natural trails which will delight intrepid outdoor adventurers & amateur photographers alike.
Set in a tropical area that quickly goes from palm trees to cacti, there is nowhere else like this on the island.
There are plenty of hiking & horse trails, while this mountainous area also has renowned mountain biking routes. These are great ways to see the area, though it is recommended to check hiring availability when booking. For the less active traveler there is also a nearby beach. As with most campismo sites, facilities are limited, though there is a snack bar & restaurant as well as a communal games room & TV lounge.
Unlike Cuba’s other campismo sites, which are rich in colour & foliage, Campismo Yacabo Abajo is completely different with arguably more cacti than palm trees & lots of hilly terrain that is ideal for mountain biking, horse riding & trekking. This is also one of the few areas of Cuba that can be considered semi-desert, providing a stunning backdrop for outdoor explorers.
For those who prefer to relax, Cabanas Campismo Yacabo Abajo has a beach which is washed by the warm waters of the Caribbean Sea. The campsite’s facilities are basic but include a restaurant & snack bar, while there is a chance to mingle with other guests in the TV room & games room.
Campismo Yacabo Abajo is in an area relatively untouched by tourism & there are also beautiful places within driving distance such as Baracoa. If you are travelling on a budget & want to see a ruggedly beautiful, unspoiled part of Cuba, you won’t find many better places.
The Imias City is sheltered on all sides by impressive mountains. Only two deep narrow passes, cut by the Rio Yacabo to the West, & the Rio Imias to the East allow passage. This extremely remote city could be described as quaint if it wasn't so orderly & composed. Old guard music & announcements from huge tannoys are piped down the main streets. Imias is a fascinating quick stop for basic supplies; but you might leave behind a niggling regret that you didn't stay & explore longer.
The folk dance La Guanajá is unique to the mountainous ImÃas region. Imias stages the street comedy play, El Berraco (The Boar), 16 August or 11 April, starting in the El Salao neighbourhood.
The small Yacabo Abajo settlement runs along the base of the fertile Rio Yacabo valley, till the Playa Yacabo beach. Yacabo Arriba is higher up the valley.
