09 Apr 2005 Destination: Los Roqes!!! One of the most beautiful places on earth, Los Roques is located off the coast of Venezuela, just a 40-minute flight from Caracas. This beautiful national park is home to more than 40 islands and over 200 atolls with bright white sand and turquoise waters. Traditionally, the region has been a paradise for European and North American scuba divers and adventure travelers. However, during the last 10 years several of the main islands have significantly improved their basic infrastructure and the region now boasts a modest tourism industry. For the producer and filmmaker, Los Roques is a true visual paradise - free from the crowds of the northern Caribbean, and offering a unique look usually found only on the remote islands of the South Pacific.
Production Specs. From a creative standpoint, Los Roques is a true director’s dream. Standing on top of the production boat, directors and DPs will be mesmerized by the beauty that surrounds them. Hundreds of sandy atolls, coral reefs at surface level, dozens of sand tones… the options are endless. more...
