Isla de la Juventud

Cuba / Isla de la Juventud / Santa Fe /

Isla de la Juventud("Isle of Youth") is the second-largest Cuban island and the seventh-largest island in the West Indies. The island has an area 3056 km² (1180 square miles) and is 100 km south of the island of Cuba, across the Gulf of Batabanó. The island lies almost directly south of Havana and Pinar del Río, and because of its superficial extension, population and for its economic characteristics, is considered to be a Special Municipality, not being a part of any province. The Isle of Youth is, therefore, administered directly by the central government of Cuba.
