Colombia – Caribbean Coastal Adventures

The Colombian north coast along the Caribbean Sea is packed with adventure, still devoid of mass tourism. Float in a bubbling mud volcano, and swim in pristine waters at palm-fringed beaches.

For many years, Colombia has not been a country high on the list of most travellers and holidaymakers. However, times have changed and the country is now open to tourism!

Over the last few years, adventure seekers have flocked to Colombia before it becomes another hotspot where mass tourism will destroy the charm. Most travellers who visited Colombia safely returned home and have good things to say about it.

Colombia is known for islands such as San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina near Nicaragua, home to some exquisite beaches. Colombia also offers the fascinating Amazonian rain forests, Andean mountains, vast plains of the Orinoquia region along the Orinoco river, and the tropical coasts along the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Ocean.

If you prefer city life, Colombia has it. Bogota is booming with funky restaurants, boutique hotels and craft breweries, and since street art was decriminalised in 2011, Bogota’s flyovers, office towers and municipal walls have become canvases for some of the world’s most prolific graffiti artists. Other interesting cities to visit include Medellin, Cali, and Cartagena.
