The second-last day of the Easter holiday. I imagined that many people, especially those who lived far away, would start to move home today. That opened for going to Isla Margarita, Venezuela’s no. 1 holiday paradise, which certainly had been packed over the last few days. The ferry to Isla Margarita was almost empty and almost no-one travelled TO the island at this time. I arrived in the evening and easily found several budget hotels having vacancies.
Isla Margarita is large and most good beaches are far outside town. Most are accessible by local buses and I headed off to the one that most people recommended: the large Playa el Agua. I went here both Easter Sunday and the following Monday. It was like two different worlds as almost all the crowds playing games on the beach and swimming in the water was gone on the Monday, when the country went back to reality. This was the time I started enjoying Venezuela.
