At Posada Arrecife Los Roques we support and offer necessary handling to select an island to visit and the most suitable activities allowed in each one: aquatic sports, bird watching and long walks for the observation of nature; for example, in all the cases groups must be reduced and there are zones which require permission to be visited.
One of the greater attractions is to visit Gran Roque’s beacon, easy to climb and the route takes less than 30 minutes. Built between 1870 and 1880 it worked until mid 50’s. From above you discover nearest keys, but in days where visibility is good enough you will be able to distinguish the Ávila Mountain (mainland) and La Orchila, a neighbor island. The festival of crystalline blues and green turquoise are just beyond description, especially if you visit it at the end of daylight when these colors melt with a Caribbean colorful sunset.
At Dos Mosquises key you will find Biology Marine Station facilities in charge of scientific researches including reef communities, fishes, anthropology, and archaeology; in addition, they carry out environmental education actions. They also own a very attractive area for visitors where marine turtles grow.
