La Guaria is the capital of the state of La Guaira in Central Venezuela. This is the country's historic port of entry. It is located next to Maiquetia which hosts the airport which sees 90% of the international air traffic in Venezuela and is about 20 minutes drive when there is no traffic from the country capital of Caracas.
Macuto

Macuto is a city in the state of La Guaira in Central Venezuela. Macuto is some 10 km from the airport and the adjoining state capital of La Guaira. Since Macuto is served by public buses and the "por Puesto" private jitneys from Caracas, the quiet weekday beaches will become crowded with many Caracenos on weekends.
