The guayabera, shirt of countrypeople to Hollywood actors
You have probably seen men wearing the famous Caribbean shirt called guayabera. The guayabera is a traditional short-or long-sleeved shirt for men in white, pastel or bright colours and with four distinctive pockets. They are usually embellished with distinctive designs using traditional embroidery. This type of shirt is usually made from cotton, linen or silk.

Their widespread use and distinctive design have made them perhaps the most iconic item of dress clothing associated with life in LatinAmerica and the Caribbean.…

The Rhythm Of Nature
The Caribbean is one of the most biodiverse regions on the planet. In terms of marine biodiversity, the conditions here are special thanks to the water temperature,salinity, depth, and turbidity.
