Medical Requirements
You should check with the relevant embassy before travel. A yellow fever vaccination certificate is not a requirement to enter Venezuela, but there have been cases where officials have illegitimately fined travellers who have been unable to produce such a certificate. Please consult your doctor prior to your trip. It is essential that you carry any personal medicines that you might require.

Tap water is considered unsafe to drink unless it is first filtered or boiled. Bottled drinking water is widely available.

Insects
Whilst on the flats you may sometimes encounter mosquitoes. However, you will find them on Gran Roque in the evenings and we therefore advise you to bring repellents such as Jungle Formula. You will find that each room has mosquito netting over the beds.
