A Cuban resident in the U.S. shared a video on social media during his first visit to an American beach, expressing great satisfaction over the absence of reggaeton, litter, and vulgarity.
Tazmania Cubano (@Tazmania_cuba) on the social media platform X shared a video showcasing the tranquility and serenity of a beach in the United States, contrasting sharply with the typical hustle and bustle of a beach in Cuba.
"There is no noise, no trash, no vulgar and filthy reggaeton, no rudeness, no people shouting that they are a bunch of fools, just educated and civilized people enjoying the tranquility," the Cuban noted in his post.
"Here is the beach, an amazing silence, there’s no filthy, vulgar reggaeton, and people are listening to Havana de Primera, Van Van, Manolín el Médico de la Salsa," the man in the video pointed out.
"You can leave your backpack a bit further back if you want; no one is going to steal it, everything is just fine," said the person who shared the video, hinting at the high level of violence and theft in Cuba as a consequence of the misery and poverty the country faces.
"Thank goodness there’s none of that filth and the stinky atmosphere found in Cuba," she finally said, warning that the beaches of the Caribbean nation are filled with trash.
During his first visit to a beach in the United States, the Cuban was undoubtedly struck by the contrast between the reality of the resorts in his Caribbean homeland and the country where he currently resides.
Some time ago, a Cuban reported the filth in the popular Guanabo beach, located east of Havana, which has essentially turned into a dump.
Osmany García Zaldívar, a doctor in Physics and a professor and researcher at the University of Havana, shared several photos on the social network X showing the sand littered with cans, sticks, empty plastic containers, and nylon bags, all very close to the bathers.
A beach in Camagüey was also in similar circumstances. The Cuban Yoleisy Cordero expressed her disappointment and concern over the condition of the popular La Colonia beach in Nuevitas.
Cordero described the situation as disastrous and terrible, sharing photographs on Facebook that reveal the deterioration of the area.
