ResumoThe coastal areas of Cuba are exposed to oil pollution.The coastal strip of the bay of Santiago de Cuba is an example of the deterioration of its natural resources due to hydrocarbon pollution, so it is important to establish the level of pollution by determining the concentration of hydrocarbons, and propose the appropriate environmental remediation.The type of contamination in the water mirror of the bay of Santiago de Cuba was characterized, using physical-chemical analysis methods, UV-VIS spectrophotometry and surface tension, from the surface to one meter deep, at four sampling points: "Hermanos Díaz" Oil Refinery (P 1), "Antonio Maceo" Thermoelectric Power Plant (P 2), "Guillermón Moncada" Port (P 3) and La Estrella Beach (P 4).
