Cubero
Just another couple of miles brings you to the Villa de Cubero. Getting its beginning in 1937, it was named for the Spanish governor. This old place first occupied by Indians from San Felipe was once a famous stopover which included a tourist court, café, and trading post, and local population of over 1,000 souls. The tourist courts were so popular that Ernest Hemingway stayed here when he was writing Old Man and the Sea, and Luci stayed here after leaving Desi Arnez. Alas, all is boarded up today with the exception of the trading post that continues to hang on somehow.
