In this region, the Mayabeque river, flowing from the northwest of the town of Güines, manages to traverse the plains towards the littoral marshlands. The waters absorbed by the soil conform the so-called Cuenca Sur (southern deep valley), a zone that contributes to agricultural development of the region, the most productive of the country.
From the point of view of the flora and natural vegetation, the region has a significant presence of man. In the littoral marshlands of the southern coast, there are well-preserved mangrove-tree communities.
