Guantanamo Bay is named after the nearby Guantanamo River, which itself derives from the indigenous Taíno word "guantana," meaning "a place where the water is." The bay is located in Cuba and has been a significant U.S. naval base since the late 19th century. Its name reflects the region's geographic and cultural history, linking it to both the local indigenous heritage and the landscape.
