This beach in Baracoa is absolutely stunning, surrounded by untouched natural beauty! There are some fantastic restaurants nearby where I had the most delicious meals. The sand at Cahuajo has a lovely mix of white and yellow. It's a shame that the tourism potential of this place is not fully utilized, as it's a hidden paradise accessible through a path that has been carved out by animals and carts.
