Playa Larga and Bahia de Cochinos
Playa Larga is a seaside town in the Matanzas Province on the southern coast of Cuba. Its waters are the northern point of Bahia de Cochinos, or more infamously known as Bay of Pigs. Our Cuba Entomology Research Expedition team used a small beach village known as Celaton, adjacent to Playa Larga, as our base camp for fieldwork in Cienaga de Zapata National Park and Biosphere Reserve. From this central location, we were able to explore this fascinating region of Cuba.
