The Caribbean Islands of Venezuela include Los Roques, Las Aves, Tortuga, Margarita, and several other islands. Venezuela has more coastline and off-shore islands than any other destination in all of the Caribbean. Venezuela remains the last unspoiled part of the Caribbean, maintaining its authentic beauty and idiosyncrasy.
Nueva Esparta is one of the 23 states of Venezuela. It was granted free-port status in 1973 and is in the Caribbean Sea, just a short distance off the northeastern coast of Venezuela.
Archipelago de Los Roques is a chain of islands and coral reefs in the Caribbean Sea about 166 km north of the Venezuelan mainland. Administratively, they are part of Venezuela's Federal Dependencies.
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.

Puerto La Cruz is a city in Venezuela's Northeast, in the state of Anzoátegui. In some ways, it's kind of like the beachside resort area for Barcelona nearby, although it is tainted a bit by the fact that it's also the home of the Puerto La Cruz refinery, one of the largest in the country, along with a fossil fuel processing plant.
Cumaná is the capital of the state of Sucre in Venezuela.
