How beautiful Morrocoy is that, despite the mistreatment and unconsciousness of the people who visit him, he still has a lot of life under his waters.
The fishermen say that in Morrocoy seven types of blue can be counted in the sea. I do not know if it is true, but it can not be denied that its contrasts are wonderful. A national park of the Falcon state that can be explored in various ways, which gives us the happiness of arriving by land to the towns of Chichiriviche or Tucacas and from there take a boat to go to its beautiful keys.

in Cayo Sur is one of the most important coral reefs in the park. A wonder that one can not imagine from the surface.
When you go sailing, tumbling in the boat, the keys appear with their own personality. There is, for example, Cayo Pelón, which can only be seen when the tide is low; Dead Key that overflows with blues and shadows to lie on the sand; Key German appearing calm and small, almost without noise; Cayo Peraza, which is full of green and blue. A little further on, La Mayorquina, which boasts one of the longest coasts and which is a protected area because that's where the turtles lay waste. And, of course, Cayo Sombrero with that unmistakable landscape of palm trees.

By going by boat and lengthen a little longer, they can pass by an English ship sunk for almost 100 years, after fleeing a Nazi submarine that was chasing him during World War II. Further on, a mountain that extends 12 kilometers and that if you look carefully gives us different forms between its rocks: that of an alligator and that of a virgin. So, until we reach the Cueva del Indio where the rocks open to show us petroglyphs dating from little more than 3200 years BC. Passing between the rocks, it flows into this cave where you can hear the water falling with caution and the rapid walk of the crabs. Inside, you see the stalactites and that immense mountain, as if you are going to fall on top of us.
When leaving there, good idea is to make a stop at the Sanctuary of the Virgin, a place without a pier, but full of faith. Hundreds of images of virgins and saints fill the rocks. A corner to pay promises, to ask for protection.
If you stay more days, then the ideal would be to wake up very early and try to beat the sun. Shortly before six o'clock in the morning you can see the birds, without disturbing them, besides appreciating the totally empty cays, just when the sun begins to bathe them with their flashes.
