Summary

Description
English: View of Cuba taken during ISS Expedition 36.

This picture is tilted east (true north is not straight up but a bit towards the left).
Near the top: Banes bay (on Banes municipality) with Macabi peninsula in it ; the town of Banes shows on the upper right of it. On the coast : punta Manglito, with a line of cayos marking a (turquoise blue-green) bump in the submarine platform, and Rio Seco bay further north.
South of Banes bay: Nipe bay (on Mayarí municipality), with the town/municipality of Antilla between these two bays. Cajimaya bay (opening in Nipe bay) ; Levisa bay ; Cabonico bay. Inland, south-west of Nipe bay: Nipe lake (embalse Nipe) (all on Mayarí municipality).

Bottom edge of photo: Sagua de Tánamo bay with, just east of it, the white-ish fantail plume of the Sagua de Tánamo river discharging in the ocean (on Frank País municipality) (see satellite view of Sagua de Tánamo bay, although the Sagua de Tánamo river does not show its fantail plume here).
