Bahía Honda is a municipality and city in the Pinar del Río Province of Cuba. It is located on the northern shore of the island, in an inlet of the Florida Straits, km to mi|70|abbr=yes west of Havana.

Bahía Honda was one of the naval bases leased to the US under the Platt Amendment, but abandoned some years later in turn for an expansion of the area leased around Guantánamo Bay. [Navarro, José Cantón: History of Cuba, Havana, Cuba, 1998, p. 83]
