When I was a little girl I loved to visit Coro dunes. It is amazingly beautiful, as you can see it in this picutre.
Venezuela has also deserts and dunes. One of the most interesting trips you can make is to the Coro Dunes (Medanos de Coro). The sand dunes of the Isthmus of the Peninsula of Paraguana are located north of the city of Coro, in Falcon State. Sand is brought from the sea by the Trade winds and deposited on the Istmo of Medanos. These winds, coming from Northeast, constantly model the sandy landscape. The massive sand dunes spread over an area of approximately 5 by 30 kilometers. Visitors can wander amongst the dunes by camel (imported many years ago), and the park is easily reached by bus or taxi from Coro.
