Cuba - Province of Camaguey - Nevuitas: A fisherman mends his nets at the harbor of which was formerly the big shipping port
for the sugar raised on the rich lands of Camaguey Province and processed into crude sugar. The crude sugar goes by freighter
to the refineries of the USA for further processing. Today these freights load at Pastilillo and Terrazza town a few kilometers
farther out on the Bay of Nevuitas, but the city of Nevuitas is still remains the business center for the shipping transactions.
