Macuto is a city of Vargas State, Venezuela.

Macuto was founded in August 1740 on the site of an indigenous village called Guaicamacuto ("basket of thorns"). It is known for its beaches, and for the town of Galipán, famous for its flowers.

1985 From Tristan Jones' Outward Leg "There is a lively crowd of people in Macuto, of all ages and states, fit for the boulavardier or rocker alike. You can see an inshore fishermen, barefoot, bronzed, traipse his catch in the night direct from his boat drawn up on the sandy beach in among the well-dressed diners sitting at the outside tables, and hardly help but watch overwrought Latin lovers beating up their lady loves with an intensity hardly dreamed of in cooler climes."
