Rancho Macanao is a place for people who want to spend an exciting day enjoying the best horseback riding in Margarita Island, Venezuela.


Latin America > Venezuela > Isla de Margerita > Peninsula de Macanao

Macanao is a region known for its magical essence. People who visit the Peninsula every day understand why the few people who live there are charmed by its unique natural sceneries. Painters, musicians, craftsmen and other artists can be found living a calmed and relaxed life filled with inspiring landscapes. However, most of the population is conformed by native fishermen and their families, who have lived there even before Spanish colonization.
