Manicato is a location on the island of Guarma. It appears to be a ruin filled dilapidated port and sub-section of Aguasdulces.
Description[]
Manicato is to the North of Aguasdulces. Like most locations on the island, it is patrolled by the Cuban Military as well. Its main feature is a nice tower overlooking the port, which later becomes destroyed by cannon fire as you progress through the story. To the South-East of the tower is a ruined building boasting several cannons and red tent canopies. Further along it is an impressive white colored temple featuring an elegant overgrown fountain and front porch, which has also been lost to the sea elements and ages of war. A tiny gazebo stands atop a hill with a set of stairs to the farthest point south, next to what looks to be a supplies posts with more tent canopies. Lastly, a huge ruined red brick building rests in the central part of the area by the sea.

Trivia[]
- Unlike all of the other locations on Guarma, Manicato is the only one that isn't named from Spanish origin. Manicato is a word from the Arawak Taíno language spoken by the historical indigenous people of the Caribbean who share the same name. Using indigenous words to name locations is a common practice in the Greater Antilles. "Manicato" refers to a person that is good, brave and hard-working.
- Although the area has a name of its own, Manicato doesn't have a label or landmark on the map.
