It is a ward (''consejo popular'') located within the municipality of [[Habana del Este]] halfway between the centre of [[Havana]] and [[Santa Cruz del Norte]], at the mouth of the ''Guanabo River'', between the [[Atlantic Ocean]] coast and the ''Sierra del Canchón'' (mountain range).

==Overview== Guanabo is a seaside [[tourism|touristic]] town, with small scale villas and a few low rise hotels.

The town was founded in 1800. In 1827 it was the place where the ''Peñas Altas'' uprising was crushed by troops from Havana (Peñas Altas is a neighbourhood east of Guanabo).
