Description: |
|
At 110 feet, and 350 tons, and a 250 passenger capacity, the Catafiesta steams quickly under her three diesel engines and three spacious decks to our installations on Cubagua Island. Once we are out of port and in crystalline Caribbean waters, our saltwater swimming pool on the sundeck (for real!!!) fills to keep you cool on your voyage , as do the unlimited rum punch, beer and soft drinks. While cruising down the Margarita coastline, dance to the tropical music, or enjoy the relative quietness of the upper sundeck; these is something for everyone!!!. |

Esparta - Margarita Island, Coche Island and Cubagua
Island. |
|
Nueva
Esparta State is formed of three islands,
Margarita Island, Coche Island and Cubagua Island.
Your destination will probably be Margarita Island
which has a split personality. The east end of
Margarita island has considerable resort
development. The west end of Margarita Island is
the Macanao Peninsula, an arid, undeveloped region
with mountains in the interior and ringed by sandy
beaches. The combination of its adventure-tourist
character and its charming people, make it
possible to offer you the best from this
enchanting sun-kissed Caribbean island.

MARGARITA ISLAND. La Isla Margarita, known as the "Pearl of the Caribbean", is situated 38 km north east of the mainland of Venezuela and far from the track of Atlantic tropical storms. Its location as an island in the Caribbean sea offers lots of beaches to explore, most of them virgin. Margarita
Island is divided into two sections tenuously linked by a 24 km. sand spit which separates the sea from the fascinating Restinga Lagoon National Park. At its largest,
Margarita Island measures 67 km from east to west ( Punta Ballena to Punta Arenas) and 32.4 kms. from north to south - 167 km. of shoreline liberally endowed with inviting beaches. The average temperature is 27 degrees Celsius and the annual rainfall averages 27 inches resulting in mostly arid landscapes with some wooded areas and fertile valleys. Over 300,000 people live on
Margarita Island most of whom live in the eastern part where the capital of Asuncion and the shoppers paradise of Porlamar are located. The western part of
Margarita island is called the Macanao Peninsula. It is sparsely populated and has seen little tourist development due to the limited availability of water. Wild deer, goats and hares roam the mountainous interior and the sandy beaches are only visited by the local fishermen.
