Choroni Beach

Choroni is a small village on Venezuela's northern coast, roughly midway between Valencia and Caracas, west of the country's capital. The city does not greatly differ from the other settlements in Latin America, it is a standard small resort with classical Creole architecture, which is diluted with frequent hotels and small restaurants with an unusually high concentration of pizzerias.


The city's beach is known as Playa Grande (literally the Great Beach). It's roughly a half-kilometer east of Choroni. The beach is stuck between a mountain that juts out into the sea from the north and a slew of more moderate hills from the east (here is the reserve Henri-Pete). The beach is directly open to the Caribbean Sea and is washed by its waters. The beach is accessible via the mountain on the north side. There are other little paths that travel through the forest in every other direction. It is better to walk along the main route, especially since it begins from The Tourist Center in the city.

The major stretch of the beach is about a kilometer and a half long. It is rather small—only 40-50 meters long—and made of light sand. Green palms carefully planted for the "kind of bounty" reach almost close to the coastline in some areas.

The sand on the beach is tiny and light golden in color, with a little filthy appearance. There are some beautiful stones closer to the boundaries on the north and east sides. Walking by the lake there, on the other hand, becomes a little uncomfortable.

The beach is cleaned on a regular basis, but not as thoroughly as many tourists staying in five-star hotels are accustomed to. There is no ash bin visible. As a result, you will need to bring as much waste as possible with you in order to dispose of it in a container along the road in front of the city.


Choroní is a popular place located in Aragua, Venezuela.
