Las ISLAS MÁS VÍRGENES de VENEZUELA 😱🌴🌊 || Archipiélago Los Testigos || Valen de Viaje

The most thought trip we made by sea in the 15 years of Bitácora was to Los Testigos, the most remote islands in eastern Venezuela. About 80 miles if you go from Margarita, but we went from San Juan de las Galdonas, when the drug traffickers were not a threat. Botuto was called our captain. There were 3 boats loaded with people and equipment because we would spend 3 days camping and we would also dive. "Botuto, we need you to slow down to be able to take out the camera, we have to record the journey," Pedro Primavera, the director, told him. “If I slow down we sink…” In other words, 4 hours at full speed, wet, crippled with cold and stumbling. But we arrived at these virgin, remote islands, where perhaps 200 people live, almost all of them fishermen from Margarita. And from that you live. From fishing and rain, because it is the downpours that provide fresh water. The most beautiful, solitary and wild beaches, which you must reach by crossing a dune while the "lame ojos" (eye lickers) drown you, and another that appears out of nowhere while you explore in the rock. We also met Chonchón, the mythical character of the islands with his shark-bitten diving suit and a fantastic tale. We dived in search of sharks, which thank heavens did not appear, but it was still a beautiful dive and my current director - Branimir Caleta - was screaming for EARTH EARTH - like Rodrigo de Triana - to get them out of that rock that lurched while waiting for divers to get out of the water. Result: we went out and there was no boat. Open sea, fierce waves and a deadly current that took us to the rocky area. But hey…Here I am telling it and you guys enjoying it!
