In 1981 a tour was carried out by a commission of the provincial UJC and, on reviewing, they proposed to build a camping site which arises in this same year. Its operation began with a tent and a staff of 11 workers who offered service on week-ends. Up to a thousand people were received. The campers were given unprocessed food for preparation in rustic kitchens that existed at that stage. There were also different species of timber and fruit trees in the garden, such as: cedar, mahogany, “majagua,” among others. Lemons, oranges, guavas, star apples, grapes, etc. were counted among the fruit trees.

 The facility currently has a total area of ??113 633.68 square meters, the used area is 2370.37 square meters, the construction area is 720.10 square meters, and there is a free area of ??111 63.31 square meters.

The facility was inaugurated on August 16th, 1981, as a tribute to the birthday of our Commander in Chief, Fidel Castro Ruz. In 1989 the construction of masonry and tile cabins begins and it has continued until today.

 Origin of the name: The name of the beach is taken from “La Altura” farm, which occupied a wide area of ??land and belonged to the pseudo-republican president Carlos Prio Socarras. About 4Km before reaching the facility, there is a small elevation with buildings that is called “La Altura”.

San Pedro Camping Site belongs to the Popular Camping Enterprise, Artemisa province. It is located in San Pedro Beach, Pablo de la Torriente Brau Community, Bahíahonda municipality, Artemisa province. It limits to the north with the coast, to the south with a private farm plantations, to the east with the Villa MININT, and to the west with the vegetation of weeds and mangroves.

The installation adopted the same name that it had before the triumph of the Revolution. It was called “Potrero San Pedro", whose last domain was registered in favor of the Orozco Sugar Company, which acquired it by means of a purchase and sale deed.

In the year 1959 the farm, where the facility is built, passes into the hands of the Cuban state through forced expropriation. Then these lands were administered by the Agrarian Reform Institute, until sometime later when the aforementioned camping site began to be built. Then it passes into the hands of the Young Communist Union. The installation was founded in 1981 with the aim of developing and promoting the enjoyment and recreation of our revolutionary and hard-working people. At the beginning, these were wooden, guano (palm leaves) and cement floor constructions.

     Palabras expresadas por  nuestro Comandante FIDEL CASTRO RUZ,  el día 19 de julio de 1981.
