The Cuban state’s plan to confront climate change is being implemented with advances in the Jardines del Rey tourist destination, especially in the keys of Coco, Guillermo, Paredón Grande and Antón Chico, on the north coast.

The Delegation of Science, Technology and Environment, CITMA, and the Coastal Ecosystems Research Centre, CIEC, guide the work that seeks sustainability and harmony with the environment.

The conservation of beaches, dunes, seabed, flora, fauna and coastal landscapes is the objective of the programme, which is bearing fruit in Ciego de Avila with the dumping of sand that initially benefited more than two kilometres of beach, according to CITMA specialists.

Las Coloradas beach, in Cayo Coco, was the first beach in the Jardines del Rey tourist destination to be declared an Environmental Beach. (Redacción Informativa)
