Club Sport Marítimo de Venezuela or just CS Marítimo for short is a football team from Caracas, Venezuela. The club was founded in 1959 by Portuguese immigrants living in Caracas, who based their new club on their favourite team from back home, CS Marítimo from the island of Madeira, who today compete in the Superliga. Even today, strong ties are kept between both clubs and their supporters from either side of the Atlantic ocean.
