Other destinations

Understand

The north Venezuelan coast is spectacular. Accommodation can be quite hard to find (as at 1997, may have developed somewhat now) but there are areas to camp if needed.

Get in

Islands can be easily reached by frequent small boats from Mochima, some were deserted in 1997 with more being "commercialised" with beach services such as restaurants.

One of the best ways to see the southernmost Caribbean islands or surrounding South American islands is via a cruise.

Get around

By boat
