AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 ISLANDS

LOS ROQUES, THE WINDY ARCHIPELAGO. We fly over the waters that separate the Venezuelan coast from Los Roques, we are going to visit this archipelago together with Francesca and her father Gian Marco, Venezuelan by birth but of Italian origin, who are both passionate about the islands and the sea. We land on Gran Roque - the only small village big enough to welcome tourists to stay in the typical posadas, there are no roads, cars or chaos - we take our boat and leave for Francisquì Island, where Francesca has an appointment for her first windsurf lesson, a sport that is very popular in this windy archipelago. When her lesson is over we visit the paradise island of Craquì, where only a few fishermen live, some birds and a small family restaurant that prepare wonderful fish dishes for the tourists that arrive there.
