Coro Halal Travel Guide

CalleCoroVzla - Colonial architecture

Santa Ana de Coro, referred to as Coro, was the first capital of Venezuela, is the oldest city in the west of Venezuela (1527) and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Through Gran Colombia's independence from Spain, Fransisco de Miranda won Coro's port, La Vela and the first place to raise Venezuela's tricolor flag. Coro is an unconfirmed indigenous word for 'wind.'

How to travel to Coro

Travel by bus is 7 hours from Caracas. As bus stations and bus travel in Venezuela are for the more adventurous tourist, air flight to Falcon is far more common.

Buy a Flight ticket to and from Coro

  • José Leonardo Chirino Airport IATA Flight Code: CZE located directly north of Coro and south of Los Medanos (sand dunes)

Punto Fijo (IATA Flight Code: LSP) is an hour away and a more regular arrival destination from Caracas, Aruba, and Curacao.

There are no passenger trains in the whole of Venezuela.

By car

There are 4 primary streets leading to Coro. Via Valencia and Moron there is a 4-lane highway from Caracas. From the north you can get in via the 4 lane autopista from Punto Fijo. From Maracaibo there is a good quality 2 lane highway. The road from Barquisimeto in the South through Sierra San Luit is in bad state recently.

Travel on a Bus in Coro

Numerous night buses to Caracas depart at 10:30PM and 11PM.

There is a direct bus from Merida (Venezuela) | Mérida most days. Leaves around 6PM, takes ~12-14 hr.

To get to the 'old town' from the bus station, either use a taxi or walk. Leaving the bus station, turn right on the main street, walk for several minutes until you reach big crossroads with direction plates for 'Centro historico', where you turn left and enter Calle Zamorra. The walk is 5-7 minutes.

Get Around

For tourists, day trips and bilingual drivers are best. The few hotels and hostels offer day trips to the peninsula and further.

What to see in Coro

Some of Venezuela's best colonial architecture and cobbled streets are found in Coro, all around the historic town center. Los Medanos are shifting sand dunes rising 30 meters within within walking distance of central Coro. A mini-Sahara and the dunes are the only desert-like area in Venezuela. Do not travel too far into the dunes as you may lose orientation or approached by local residents warning you.

Top Muslim Travel Tips for Coro

Do feel privileged if you travel to Coro; it is a national tourist destination. However, even located within 30 kilometers of Aruba and Curacao, Coro does not receive foreigners too often. Coro does play a small but important piece in Venezuelan history.
