A lot of people think about the Caribbean beaches and only picture places such as Jamaica, the wonderful beaches of Mexico, or the famous islands in the Caribbean Sea like Puerto Rico or the Dominican Republic. However, unless you know someone who is familiar whit the entire region, it is very difficult to find places as beautiful as the ones aforementioned. An example of that if Los Roques, an archipelago located in the waters of Venezuela.
At a distance of about 168 km away form the harbor of La Guaira, Caracas, Los Roques is group of keys formed by more than 50 islands. The most important, El Gran Roque or the Great Rock, is the only one inhabit and is where the airport is located. The other important islands are Francisqui, Nordisqui, Madrisqui y Crasqui.
Los Roques is considered a paradise by those who have had the pleasure of visiting it. As many other wonderful places in the Caribbean Sea, is a place full of spectacular beaches and splendid blues characterizing its waters. But what make Los Roques different are two very important features. First, the huge extension of its peaceful waters, the presence of lagoons in the middle of some of its keys, and the quality of the white sand of its beaches. Secondly, although it is an excellent place for tourism, the archipelago remains unknown for a great many tourists around the world and there is not a big infrastructure development there, so the keys stay almost as in their natural ecosystem. It does not mean that you will not find a bed where to sleep; on the contrary, any one interested in spending a whole weekend in this paradise can choose among a variety of lodges or inns.
Los Roques is an ideal place for snorkeling, fishing, windsurfing, or kite surfing, and if you ever decide to go there you will never forget it.
