South America

This national park is one of the most visited places in Colombia and our last stop on the Carribbean Coast.

We tried to evade the day trippers going to the overcrowded Playa Cabo de San Juan by making a 3-day trip to the lesser-known beaches. The sweaty hikes through the jungle and sleepless nights in a hammock/moldy tent were rewarded with sights of an anteater, a tucan, barbed woodpeckers, lizards of all sizes & colours and all 3 types of monkeys (capuchin, howler & tamarin) 🐒. We could wash off the sweat in the clear blue sea with a view of white beaches backed by palm trees, jungle and the slopes of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. 🌴

This may have been our last sight of the sea for this trip, but it was a good one!En savoir plus
