you can park the car next to the beach, nice people, i was told that playa parguito is the best surf spot of isla margarita, playa el agua next beach north works as well but a lot of swimmers (tourists)
Atmosphere
i read everything about learning to surf, minimals ect. and started on a 6,4 shorty and after 3 attempts i surf down a little wave, the guy who helped me was as astonished as me. so i will always remember this spot as a turningpoint after 29 years walking on earth. now surfing.
