| Lake Maracaibo | |
| Lake Maracaibo is the largest lagoon in South America. Despite its name, it is classified as a lagoon because of a 34-mile (approximately 40 km) strait along its northern shore. With a surface area of 13,512 km² (5,217 sq mi), if counted as a lake, it would be the largest lake in South America, surpassing Lake Titicaca, and also one of the oldest lakes on Earth, formed 36 million years ago in the Andes Mountains. | |
