Escape to the Los Roques archipelago for 3 days on the paradisiacal shores of these southern Caribbean islands. With hotel accommodation just a short walk from the beach on Gran Roque, plus daily boat transfers across the archipelago, you've got everything you need for a great tropical retreat.

A flight carries you north from Caracas and over the breathtaking collection of more than 300 tiny islands, framed by long barrier reefs and sand banks in the spectacular turquoise waters. When you touch down at Gran Roque Airport, you're already right next to the shore on the atoll's main island, where you check in to your charming posada hotel in the nearby beachside town.

The next 2 days let you dive in for the rejuvenating experience of exploring the islands' pristine landscapes and uninhabited islets. Take a boat ride out to one of the pristine cays, go for a swim to explore the great seascapes and impressive marine life, watch the wide variety of seagulls, frigate birds, swallows, or blue herons, or just get in some relaxation time on the beach before your flight back to Caracas.
