Margarita Island is the largest island in the Venezuelan state of Nueva Esparta, situated off the northeastern coast of the country, in the Caribbean Sea. The capital city of Nueva Esparta, La Asunción, is located on the island. The island's status as a duty-free port and proximity to the mainland make it a popular vacation spot for Venezuelans. It sees a large number of tourists around Christmas time, Easter week, and from July to mid-September. Whiskey, cheese, chocolate, and electrical appliances, among other goods, can be purchased less expensively than on the mainland.
“Our company has been using Forbes Travel for most of our corporate travel in the five years I have been working here. I have found them to be one of the best, if not The Best, travel agencies I have worked with over my many years working in an office. All the agents are extremely friendly and efficient, with a very short turnaround time on flight requests, usually within an hour or two. I have also used their leisure division for my personal travel and would definitely recommend Forbes Travel for corporate and personal travel arrangements.”
