Rio Nuevo Battle Site

TIME : 2016/2/18 15:34:58

On the bluff west of the Rio Nuevo river mouth is this little-visited site where, in 1658, the English forces fought their decisive battle against the Spanish, sending them fleeing to Cuba. A plaque here records the events and there’s a small exhibition on the area’s historical heritage.
