 How to get there
Transport:
- Boat
Access:
- No Walk


Aeropuerto Internacional de Maiquetìa then make the transition to the domestic area and take a flight to Valencia. From here you have different options but recommended is to rent a car, buy a map and ask in the same airport someone to mark you the way to Chichiriviche. Once you take the highway it's easy - from Valencia take the highway to Pto Cabello, then when you get to El Palito make a right to Tucacas and from there is straight all the way. You will pass Boca de Aroa then Tucacas and at about 20min you will see a sign to Chichiriviche follow the signs and you`ll be fine. Here you need to take a boat to the island.
