Cuba

Bolivia is one of ten Municipios in the Ciego de Ávila Province in Cuba .

The coastal region of the Bahía de Perros and the Bahía de Jigüe north of the city of Bolivia are covered with inaccessible mangrove swamps . The only access to the sea is Playa Cunagua , located about eleven kilometers north of Bolivia . The region is almost completely flat, with the exception of the Loma de Cunagua, which can be seen from afar .

Before the administrative reform in 1976, the entire municipality was called Cunagua . On older maps from around 1929 the region is also called Judas . The Cayo Judas and the coastal section Pasa de Judas still point to this name today .

The checkpoint is on the southern edge of the nature reserve in the immediate vicinity of the Moron-Bolivia road.
