MIAMI—The U.S. Coast Guard stopped a total of 84 people from Cuba migrating by sea off the Bahamas and the Florida Keys last week.
A Coast Guard cutter, the Paul Clark, returned the people to Cuba on Wednesday, the agency said.
They were stopped on the ocean between Sunday, April 17, and Tuesday, April 19. One group was 23 miles southwest of Cay Sal in the Bahamas.
The other four groups were interdicted in various areas of the Middle Keys, according to the Coast Guard.
South Florida is in the midst of a surge in maritime migration from both Cuba and Haiti.
