That river, along with 71 others, flows into the Toa river, which is the largest river in Cuba. The 305-meter-high Salto Fino waterfall is recorded as the 20th highest water chute in the world.

Airport

Gustavo Rizo Airport (IATA: BCA, ICAO: MUBA) is a regional airport that serves this town. This is a small airport that usually operates with national flights. Located west of the bay near the Hotel Porto Santo and about 4 km (2� miles) NNW of Baracoa. Although flights are infrequent, Cubana de Aviaci�n flies here occasionally from Santiago de Cuba and Havana, and the fare is very reasonable.

Gastronomy

Baracoa has some very typical dishes, such as Cucurucho, a mix of coconut and lots of sugar and other ingredients like orange, guava and pineapple and wrapped in a palm leaf. Another is Bac�n, which is made from bananas and wrapped in a banana leaf. And of course there is lots of chocolate in this cocoa producing region
