Margarita Marine Museum

The sea around the island, up close and without getting wet.

Best time
Morning
Area
West coast
Duration
1–2 h

The Marine Museum sits in Boca del Río, at the gateway to Macanao and minutes from La Restinga. It brings together the life of the sea around Margarita: fish, molluscs, turtles and the fishing history that has sustained the island for centuries. It is a great stop with children and a good complement to any beach or boat day in the west.

Details being confirmed. We are finalising this card with the local operators before publishing it in full.
