What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Punta de Ganado campsite, located in Nuevitas, transitioned to private management in mid-October. This shift is part of a broader plan by the Campismo Popular Business Group to privatize all seven camping sites in the province by the end of 2027. With the new private lessee in charge, round-trip transportation from Camagüey now costs between 5,000 and 6,500 pesos per person, and entrance fees are 500 pesos for adults and 300 pesos for children.
