Venezuela Holidays: Scuba Diving in Los Roques

Los Roques Archipelago is one of the most remote places of the Caribbean Sea, 176 km / 110 miles north of Caracas. Christopher Columbus discovered the islands in the late 15th century and described it as "a true paradise on earth". It consists of about 50 islands and 300 emerged sandbanks. Silky sand, crystalline water, permanently blue sky (no rain here) and a perfect location far from destructive storms, are just a few lovely characteristics of the place. This is one of the world's largest marine reserves, the third largest coral reef of the world and a true beach paradise.

Los Roques is a National Park where environmental protection is top priority. It is forbidden to build high-rise hotels on the island. You stay in a local guesthouse on Gran Roques, the only island with permanent human settlements. The guesthouse is a picturesque old fisherman house refurbished rather luxuriously. Each day boat excursions bring you around the archipelago and you discover the incredible nature and its wonderful beaches. Other aquatic activities such as snorkelling, sailing, windsurfing are also available, but if you want to dive, we advise you to book with us now.

Diving in Los Roques is a must, the true essence of adventure. It is a paradise of remote coral reefs barely explored and sheltering an abundant and diversified marine wildlife. 60 metres deep drops, underwater caves sheltering weird shellfishes and sharks, sponge forests visible through a kaleidoscope of coloured tropical fishes……Los Roques has all the underwater wonders of the Caribbean and a great visibility.
Every day, the dive boat leads you to different diving spots.
Once a year, each diving magazine does at least one enthusiastic reportage about this dream archipelago, describing it as one of the best diving destination in the World.
