| Colorados Archipelago.
It is located in the first section of the Northern coast, which has a wide platform. It is also known as Guaniguanico or Santa Isabel Archipelago. We find it to the West and goes along the North West coast of Pinar del Rio Province. It is the smallest, the less major and less nationwide of the four Cuban archipelagos with no more than 80 keys. It would be nice to point out that only in the Caribbean are small isles known as keys. This archipelago does not fashion a crowded team; instead, its keys are distributed in two groups: one to the West, afterward to the san Antonio Cape( the Easternmost peak of Cuba) and known as La Lena Keys, while the rest forms a consecutive key chain next to the shore, where its small mangrove jungles are apparent. The main ones are Buenavista, Rapado, Jutias, Ines de Soto, Levisa and Alacranes. All of them are very small and covered by mangrove. A small reef barrier goes along maximum of the coast.
