Hello friends of @worldmappin, happy weekend! I wanted to end the week by sharing with you my experience of a group trip to the tourist town of "Morrocoy" that I took with my high school friends.
Morrocoy National Park is located in Falcón State, Venezuela, and its nearest cities are Tucacas and Chichiriviche. It is full of small cays surrounded by crystal clear water and white sand. What makes these cays special is their natural beauty, and the most famous ones are: Sombrero, Sal, Borracho, Muerto, Las Ánimas, and Peraza.
I've had the opportunity to visit Cayo Muerto and Cayo Sal, and one of the things I love most in life is the beach and discovering new beaches. I love these two cays because the water is so calm and crystal clear. You can spend hours underwater and lose track of time. I hope to visit other cays in the near future.
This was a four-day trip. I went with nine friends and several parents. We stayed at a friend's apartment that had a pool with a slide and direct access to the boat harbor. To go to the keys, you have to pay, as each key has its own price (we paid $6 per person). Similarly, there are many boat operators at the port, and you choose who you want to go with, depending on the capacity of the boat and the number of people.
We left Caracas on a Friday afternoon. The trip takes almost four hours if there is no traffic and you drive at an average speed of 100 km per hour.
Since we arrived at night and were so hungry, we stopped to eat hamburgers at a restaurant near the apartment where we were staying. The next day we got up very early and went to eat Margaret's empanadas for breakfast, which are out of this world. My favorite empanada is the plantain and cheese one, so that's what I ate every day.
After breakfast, we went to the beach, specifically to Cayo Muerto, where we spent an incredible day on the beach. We didn't get out of the water until they came to pick us up at 6:00 p.m. After arriving from the beach, we went to the pool until about 9:00 p.m.
In the evening, after showering and having dinner in the apartment, we went to the barbecue grills by the pool to hang out and wait for sleep to come. The next day we went to Cayo Sal, where, unlike the day before, we all had sunburned skin, despite using full sunscreen, so we didn't want to sunbathe anymore and started walking around the cay and found a hidden little beach that a friend called El Paraíso because it is a small beach with no waves and surrounded by trees.
That night we went to the town where there are food stalls and handmade jewelry. On the last day we had to return early because one of the parents we were with had several things to do in Caracas, and we slept the whole way back because we were so tired.
Well, friends on Hive, thank you for reading my post. I would love to know if you have visited the keys of Morrocoy National Park and if you would like me to continue sharing my experiences of new places I visit and my outings with friends and family. I look forward to reading your comments.
Hola amigos de @worldmappin feliz fin de semana, quise cerrar la semana compartiendo con ustedes mi experiencia de un viaje grupal al pueblito turistico "Morrocoy" que hice con mis amigos de bachillerato.
El parque nacional Morrocoy está ubicado en el Estado Falcón, Venezuela y sus ciudades cercanas son Tucacas y Chichiriviche. Está lleno de cayos que son pequeñas y las rodeadas de agua cristalina y arena blanca. Los especial de estos cayos es su belleza natural y los más famosos son: Sombrero, Sal, Borracho, Muerto, Las Ánimas y Peraza.
He tenido la oportunidad de visitar cayo Muerto y cayo Sal y a mi una de las cosas que más me gusta en la vida es la playa y conocer playas nuevas y estos dos cayos me encantan porque el agua es tan tranquila y cristalina, puedes pasar horas sumergido y pierdes la noción del tiempo, espero poder en un futuro cercano conocer otros cayos.
Este fue un viaje de 4 dias, fui con 9 amigos y varios papas, nos quedamos en el apartamento de una amiga que tenia piscina con tobogán, salida directo al puerto de las embarcaciones. Para poder ir a los cayos hay que pagar ya que cada cayo tiene su propio precio, ( nosotros pagamos 6$ por persona) de igual manera en el puerto hay muchos lancheros y tu eliges con quien te vas, de acuerdo a la capacidad de la lancha y el número de personas.
Nosotros salimos de Caracas un viernes en la tarde, el camino son casi 4 horas si no hay cola y vas manejando a una velocidad promedio de 100 km por hora haces buen tiempo.
Como ese dia llegamos en la noche y teniamos tanta hambre nos paramos a comer unas hamburguesas en un restaurante cerca de el apartamento donde nos íbamos a quedar. Al dia siguiente nos levantamos bien temprano y fuimos a desayunar las empanadas de Margaret que son de otro planeta, mi empanada favorita es la de platano con queso asi que esa era la que comia todos los días.
Después de desayunar nos fuimos a la playa especificamente a cayo Muerto,donde pasamos un día increíble y metidos en la playa, no salimos del agua hasta que nos fueron a buscar a las 06 de la tarde y después de llegar de la playa nos íbamos a la piscina como hasta las 09 de la noche.
En la noche después de bañarnos y cenar en el apartamento nos íbamos a las parrilleras que hay en el área de la piscina a compartir y esperar que nos diera sueño. Al dia siguiente fuimos a cayo Sal que a diferencia del dia anterior estábamos todos con la piel quemada, a pesar de usar full protector solar, así que no quisimos tomar mas sol y nos pusimos a caminar por el cayo y encontramos una playita como escondida que un amigo la llamó El Paraíso porque es una playa chiquita sin olas y rodeada de puros arboles.
Ese dia en la noche nos fuimos al pueblo que hay puestos de ventas de comida y de joyería artesanal. Ya el último día nos tuvimos que regresar temprano ya que uno de los papas con los que estábamos tenia varias cosas que hacer en Caracas, y todo el camino de regreso fue durmiendo de lo cansados que estábamos.
Y bueno amigos de hive, garcias por leer y mi post y me encantaría saber si han ido a conocer esos cayos del Parque Nacional Morrocoy y si les gustaría que siguiera compartiendo asi experiencia a lugares nuevos que voy conociendo y mis salidas con amigos y familiares, los leo.
