330 days of Sunshine is what Isla Margarita offers its visitors. The largest island in the Venezuelan state of Nueva Esparta and located off the northeastern coast of the country, Isla Margarita is divided into two peninsulas but an 18 kilometer strip of land connects the two. An island getaway for both domestic and foreign travelers, it offers the best of both worlds for everyone ranging from beaches, opulent shops, numerous dining options, and activities to experience. The Del Caribe "Santiago Mariño" International Airport located in the island is your portal to Isla Margarita. It is served by a number of domestic and international carriers.

For history buffs, check out the Fortin de la Galera, Museo Marino de Margarita, Faro Punta Ballenas, and Castillo San Carlos de Borromeo.
