Islands of Los Roques Archipelago National Park

Every one of the pictures in this book can be lived and breathed on a visit to Los Roques. There are true wonders to be observed from the window of the aeroplane, during a leisurely walk on the beach, or with a simple mask and snorkel. I hope that this book brings pleasure and happy memories to those who have stayed here, and entices new people to discover Los Roques. However, my greatest aim is to contribute to the care and conservation of this worldly paradise by enhancing the understanding of its rich ecology. Los Roques is a gift for us to enjoy, and it is our responsibility to protect and preserve it. Each shell and every grain of sand found in this paradise comes from the heart of the Caribbean. It belongs to the archipelago, and there it must remain.
