Of course, the beautiful Yumuri Valley is picture perfect, completing the mix of city, beach and countryside. For visitors to Varadero, a Tropicana nightclub has been built overlooking the picturesque Canimar River just outside the city of Matanzas. On the south shore of Matanzas province is the Bay of Pigs with accommodation and great snorkeling and diving at Playa Larga and Playa Giron.
