From 07 AM one of our vehicles will pick you up at your hotel in Santa Marta to begin the adventure. We will leave the city passing through the center to take the Troncal del Caribe highway for 45 minutes until the main entrance of Tayrona Park (El Zaino).
Upon arriving at the national park, we will get out of the vehicle, we will check in each traveler and we will buy the entrance tickets. At this point the guide will provide a brief orientation on the park`s conservation and safety regulations.
We will enter Tayrona Park on foot, starting our ecological walk. The trail is well marked and will take you through lush tropical forests and breathtaking scenery. You`ll enjoy the atmosphere and take the best pictures along the way.
The walk lasts approximately 2 hours, depending on the pace and the stops we make along the way. We will cross winding trails that will immerse us in dense tropical forests; We will enjoy the refreshing shade and appreciate the great variety of flora and fauna that inhabits the park. You will see imposing ceiba trees, palms and ferns, and a great variety of orchids, considered “the national flower”. We`ll also pass small streams and cross makeshift bridges that add a touch of adventure to the experience. It is recommended that you always follow the guide`s instructions and do not leave the indicated trails.
As we get closer to Cabo San Juan, we will hear the sound of waves crashing on the shoreline, adding to the excitement. The last part of the trail descends to the main beach of Cabo San Juan, where you will be greeted by the impressive view of the beach and the Caribbean Sea. It will be a rewarding moment after the long walk.
Once in Cabo San Juan you will have time to rest and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. You can swim in the crystal clear waters or just relax on the sand.
In Cabo San Juan you will find restaurant options that offer local dishes and fresh seafood. The guide will provide you with the necessary recommendations so that you can enjoy a delicious lunch overlooking the Caribbean Sea (lunch not included in the activity).
You will have the option to explore the surroundings of Cabo San Juan. Take a short walk to the viewpoint of the cape and get a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape or enjoy a dip in the nearby natural pools.
We will be in Cabo San Juan from the middle and around 03:30 PM we will start the walk back towards the park entrance. We will take the opportunity to appreciate the beauty of nature again and capture the latest images of the landscape.
We will leave the park and return to Santa Marta, ending the adventure with the drop off at your place of accommodation.
