As paradoxical as it can be, Coro is known for its desert and its beaches. The beaches, however, are located in two towns named Morrocoy and Tucacas, which are pictured to the left. Morrocoy is a national park where many people gather to practice aquatic sports. If you are more technologically inclined, Coro's petroleum refineries might catch your attention. These industries are located in the peninsula of the state, where it is easier for ships to load the chemicals, and less dangerous for the living species of the area.
Petroleum is, by the way, the main exporting good of Venezuela.
