Almendares River
River in western Cuba
About
The Almendares River is a river that runs for 47 km in the western part of Cuba. It originates from the east of Tapaste and flows into the Straits of Florida. The river acts as a water supply for Havana.
The final stretch divides the municipalities of Plaza de la Revolución (Vedado district) and Playa (Miramar district). Part of the river valley forms the Almendares Park or Metropolitan Park of Havana (PMH), a few kilometers upstream from the ocean.
