Yordanys Durañona García (born 16 June 1988) is a Cuban-born triple jumper, who competed internationally for Dominica. Switching allegiance from his native Cuba in 2011, he represented Dominica in a multitude of international tournaments, including the 2014 Commonwealth Games, 2015 Pan American Games, and 2016 Summer Olympics.

Durañona also achieved his outdoor best jump of 17.20 m (-1.0 m/s) at the 2014 Pan American Sports Festival in Mexico City. Durañona competed for Dominica in the men's triple jump at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.

Leading up to his maiden Games, he successfully eclipsed the IAAF Olympic standard (16.85) with a best jump of 16.98 m for a gold-medal triumph at the 2015 NACAC Championships in San José, Costa Rica. Durañona crashed out of the qualifying phase without attaining a mark against his name, failing to produce a single legal jump in all three attempts. Durañona also served as the country's flag bearer at the parade of nations segment of the opening ceremony.
