Life must be lived as Play
Los Roques is the biggest coralline atoll in the South Caribbean sea located at the very North Sea frontier of Venezuela with a surface area of approx. 700 km2, 42 keys, 300 small islets and multiple living coral reefs. Turquoise waters wrap white sandy beaches & emerald lagoons protected by surrounding reef and mangroves. Saltwater pools, prairies of marine herb and hundreds of marine species enrich this fragile marine oasis. The lack of buildings, cars and paved roads make this destination unique where “less is more”. It’s hard to describe its beauty, just nature and living colors becomes in lack of a better word, paradise.
