The Sinamaica lagoon is a large extension of water northwest of Zulia, Venezuela. The Sinamaica village inhabited by the ethnic Aûu Indians is one of the last floating villages on earth and have been living in the area in houses above water, known as palafitos, since pre-colonial times. They use the water body for fishing, transport, and other activities. Wooden canoes or small motor boats are used for transportation.
