Morrocoy National Park
Morrocoy National Park is a coastal park full of little islands, mangroves, and calm shallow beaches on Venezuela's Caribbean coast. Its warm clear water is great for swimming and floating.
Families love hopping by boat from one sandy island to another for a day at the beach. It is one of the most popular seaside escapes in the country.
Island Hopping by Boat
Small boats carry visitors to sandy islands called cayos, each with its own beach. You can pick a quiet one or a lively one to spend the day.
Mangroves and Birds
Twisty mangrove trees grow right in the salty water and shelter crabs, fish, and many birds. Pink flamingos and pelicans are often seen nearby.
Calm Shallow Water
Many beaches have very shallow, gentle water that stays warm, which is perfect for young children. You can walk far out and the water still reaches only your knees.
