The flag was designed by Carlos I. Fernández Velázquez and
its background color is "seafoam", a kind of light
turquoise or blue green. Six sectors make up the barrio and are
represented in its symbology:
· Bees - stands for Las Abejas sector, where many beehives could
once be found

was the last name of the first inhabitants; a mango tree has been
