Explore remote cays covered in mangroves. Take boat trips to nearby islands, such as Cayo Sombrero, Muerto and Playuela. Try out snorkeling, diving and waterskiing. Discover Morrocoy, a national park not far from Caracas (just 187 miles) set apart by its cays; mangroves; intricate coral; and myriad species of birds, from scarlet ibis to pink flamingoes and crested herons.

You can reach the park through the two small towns of Tucacas and Chichiriviche; small boats head to the islands each morning and return before sunset.

Yampu offers accommodation at Posada El Paraiso Azul, a quiet posada set on a hilltop amidst that looks out on the park’s mangroves and keys. Marked by comfort, its fifteen rooms offer air conditioning, fans, mosquito nets and private bathrooms with hot water.
