Pampatar
Playa Pampatar is steeped in history. This beautiful bay sits at the foot of the Castillo de San Carlos Borromeo, a colonial fortress built by the Spanish in the 17th century to protect against pirate raids. Today, the fortress is a museum and the beach is a charming blend of history and Caribbean relaxation. Colorful wooden fishing boats (peeros) line the shore, and local fishermen sell their fresh catch right on the beach each morning. The calm, protected waters are perfect for swimming and snorkeling around the rocky outcrops. The town of Pampatar behind the beach features colonial architecture, a church square, and seafood restaurants.
