El Yaque beach

El Yaque is a popular beach in the south of Margarita island, Venezuela. It is possible just to walk here from the airport. The beach is beautiful. And it is located in a safe area. There are many good restaurants. So feel free to take a hotel on Bed & Breakfast basis. There are many trees and palms ashore, while breakwaters protect from ocean waves. Please note, that wind is usually strong in this side of the island. This is not a real problem. But you should be ready for this. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
