ISLE OF PINES 



Population, 4,515 Inhabitants 



Nothing could be more beautiful than a moon- 

 light sail across the Caribbean from Cuba, or a 

 beautiful sunset on the way to Batabano from 

 Havana, via the United Railways of Havana, or 

 at Nueva Gerona with the quaintness of the spot 

 and the balmy climate so invigorating. 



Almost surrounded by the green and inviting 

 mountains of Sierra de las Casas, and the Sierra 

 de Caballas lies Nueva Gerona, the Capital City 

 of the Isle of Pines. 



These ranges of Las Casas and De Caballas 

 have profitable marble quarries, which have been 

 worked from earliest times. 



The automobile roads all over this tropical 

 island are very good, and the sea (never far away) 

 invites one to its shores. On the south coast 

 beautiful concha shells are found in abundance. 

 Fishing in portions of the Island is a pleasant 

 pastime to many visitors. At Nueva Gerona 

 there is a first-class, up-to-date hotel, from the 

 upper balcony of which the view of the sea, river 

 and mountains is charming.
