The Punto Fijo Mosque (Spanish: Mezquita de Punto Fijo) is a Mosque located in the city of Punto Fijo on the Paraguaná Peninsula, in the autonomous municipality of Carirubana Municipality in the northern part of Falcón State and the north-western region of the South American country of Venezuela. It was established in the year 2008 owing to the growth of the Muslim community near the duty-free area of Paraguaná.
In 2012, during the events surrounding the Amuay Refinery incident, the Muslim community showed solidarity by collecting and donating supplies of food and clothing.[1]
