Isla Margarita, known as the “Pearl of the Caribbean” is the most developed of three islands which form the state of Nueva Esparta, just off the North East coast of Venezuela. Although situated within the Caribbean, Margarita is not in the hurricane belt. Its’ natural beauty and tropical climate make Isla Margarita an increasingly popular tourist destination.

Isla Margarita measures 55km east to west by 22km North to South. The dramatic mountainous terrain, populated with lush vegetation, flora and forna ascends to over 1000 metres above sea level and is framed by many stunning white sandy beaches.

With over 300km of coastline, you may wish to bask in the sun or perhaps explore many of the more active pursuits and sports on offer. Margarita provides residents and tourists alike with a huge variety of both relaxing and active ways to spend the day. The climate is a consistent 80°F, varying little more than +/- 4°C across the year, with a soothing sea breeze. The warm days & cool evenings make for a very comfortable living environment.

Access to the island is good with more and more direct flights from numerous global locations as well as to Caracas a mere 35 minute flight away.

Despite the closeness to the mainland, just 38 kilometres, Margarita remains practically untouched by its influence. Life goes on in a typically relaxed way, the Latin lifestyle mixed with European & American influences make for a developed, democratic and friendly environment.
