LOS ROQUES ARCHIPELAGO
Los Roques archipelago is the largest coral atoll in the Caribbean and lies 160km north of Caracas, Venezuela. Made up of around 350 islands surrounded by a large and magnificent coral reef in calm, crystal clear water.
The archipelago is characterised by pure and white beaches which stretch out as far as the eye can see forming a beautiful game of colours with the multicoloured sea.
Los Roques was declared a National Park in 1972 due to its beauty and ecological importance. Home to many bird types including the flamingo, pelican, seagull, gannet and frigate bird. The sea here hosts a variety of fish and sea turtles all making a real biological paradise.
The construction of hotels is not allowed to protect environmental integrity, making Los Roques a still virgin (pure) destination for ecological tourism.
Of all the islands only Gran Roque is inhabited, the others represent pristine landscapes where it is possible to go exclusively by boat.
