    1. Salto Ángel

    Salto Angel / Via saltoangel.com

    It is the world's highest uninterrupted waterfall, which drops over the edge of the Auyantepui mountain in the Canaima National Park.

    Keep in mind that you will get to this isolated island by a river trip!

    2. Isla Margarita

    Hike Venezuela / Via hike-venezuela.com

    It is the largest island in the state of Nueva Esparta, situated off the northeastern coast of the country, in the Caribbean Sea.

    There are at least 50 beaches on the island but Playa El Yaque is the most popular location for windsurfing and kitesurfing.

    3. Higuerote

    Higuerote online / Via higueroteonline.com

    It is the capital city of Brión Municipality, located in the state of Miranda, an hour and a half from Caracas. Its beaches attract thousands of travelers every year but only the bravest will get some adrenaline doing some sky diving!

    4. Mérida

    Teleférico de Mérida / Via telefericodemerida.travel

    Mérida is the capital of the municipality of Libertador and the state of Mérida, and is one of the principal cities of the Venezuelan Andes. You will get a breathtaking view of the city from its cable car, which is the highest in the world.

    5. Colonia Tovar

    It is a town of Venezuela founded in 1843 by a group of immigrants from the independent state of the Grand Duchy of Baden (later incorporated into Germany) so it is called "the Germany of the Caribbean". Don't miss their different and warmer Oktoberfest!

    Have you ever tried sandboarding? Try this new experience at the Médanos de Coro, a Venezuelan national park located in the state of Falcón.
