The Pearls of ‘Pearl Island’

Isla Margarita, home to the future Caracola Beach and Spa Resort, received its nickname ‘Pearl Island’ after a hidden bed of pearls were found here. Today, local shops on Isla Margarita sell its pearls. These pearls are usually small, primarily pink in color, and come in unusual shapes due to the rich oyster beds they are found in.

If you visit Isla Margarita in the hopes to take one or many of these pearls back home with you many stores carry authentic pearls. According to locals the best place to find beautiful pearls is at the Casa Avila, Calle Gomez 47.

Take a Ride Through Isla Margarita


Horseback riding through Isla Margarita is a great way to see and experience the island. There are two public stables on the island; CabaCaribe and Cabatucan.
CabaCaribe is an American run stable located five minutes from Playa el Agua and serves all the major tourist hotels. This stable is the smaller of the two with tours staying primarily in the mountains. They offer horses in all different sizes to accommodate all riders, as well as many different types of tours which cater to all experience levels. For more information on CabaCaribe, please visit http://www.cabacaribe.com.

Cabatucan, a French establishment, is located on the other end of the island and offers riders with tours along the beaches and the Mountains of Macanao. Cabatucan’s location makes it less crowded because it takes about 45 minutes to get there from most resorts on the island; however, it is well worth the distance. The beaches on this side of the island are always deserted and a gallop along the water is inevitable. For pictures and information, visit their website at http://www.cabatucan.com

Depending on your preferences and the amount of time you have, these two stables are sure to meet your needs and the experience will definitely be a major highlight of your trip!
