Cuba

Cuba's topography is characterized by a diverse range of landscapes that significantly influence its climate and ecology. The terrain primarily consists of flat to rolling plains, especially in the central and western regions, while the southeast features rugged hills and mountain ranges, including the Sierra Maestra, which is home to Pico Turquino, the highest point on the island at approximately 6,561 feet. This mountainous area creates a natural barrier that affects rainfall distribution, resulting in lush, fertile valleys such as the Viñales Valley, known for its unique karst formations like mogotes—towering limestone hills—and sinkholes​. Coastal regions are defined by beautiful beaches and the warm waters of the Caribbean Sea, which foster diverse ecosystems, including mangroves and coral reefs. Rivers like the Cauto, the longest in Cuba, flow predominantly through these southern mountainous regions, creating vital water resources amid a generally dry climate​. Overall, Cuba's varied topography not only shapes its natural beauty but also plays a critical role in its ecological systems and human activities.
