Rio Caribe Attractions
Río Caribe is a small town on the Península de Paria. Although it has very few attractions it has a pleasant location with a long stretch of beach and is a good base from which to explore the surrounding area. It is regularly serviced by local buses.
Hacienda Aguasana
At the Hacienda Aguasana visitors will find a variety of natural and man made ponds fed by natural hot springs. There are seventeen pools in total with varying temperatures. They are spread over a small field with some of the pools being covered by thatched roof huts which offer protection from the sun. Old wooden ladders allow guests to climb in and out of the sometimes murky looking water.
