This pleasant white sand beach is located on the eastern coast of Isla Margarita in between the town of Pampatar to the south and Playa Parguito to the north.

We visited the Guacuco Beach on a weekday morning as a brief stop on our taxi driver guided tour of Margarita Island.

There are several bars, restaurants and other visitor services on Playa Guacuco. During this early morning visit, we saw some men setting up a long line of rental umbrellas and beach chairs.

Some of the accomodations available on or near Playa Guacuco include the Villa Los Delfines, the Guacuco Beach Apartments, Confortel Tamarindo Cuacuco, and the Hotel Guacuco Resort.
