Parque Nacional Natural Tayrona, Tayrona National Park

After a long drive to get there it was worth the wait. Going on the boat to the beach was fun. Once we got there the views were spectacular. If you don't like fish to eat then you very limited. The local sweets and drinks were very good. Had a great time here

Great place, amazing nature, stunning beaches. We saw a lot of trash tho maybe because there weren't many trash bins (of course this doesn't mean to throw the trash in the nature). The trekking is not good signaled so be sure to ask other people when not sure for the way.

June 25 2022 I do not recommend it at this time. This place, apart from being a beautiful reserve, is currently in very poor condition for access to the beaches and other activities, the rains have turned the access roads into mud, we were all desperate to get out of there as soon as possible, the mud reached us half a leg and many tourists choose to rent horses to be able to move forward and this makes everything even worse, only 30% of the roads are made of wood, the rest of the access is through very narrow stones, dirt roads, streams, and areas of much vegetation with almost no access, food is expensive, and it is not safe for older adults or infants, there is no assistance in case of emergencies during the walk and you have to buy insurance worth 5000 Colombian pesos and I only saw 2 people supposed to help at the beginning and almost at the end of the trail.

Great Park, got to see some beautiful beaches, birds, monkeys, lizards and colourful butterflies! Highly recommend, easy to get tickets at gate arrive around 8 or 9 am queues can take long. We paid 68k entrance along with another 5k medical cover. Take the shuttle bus inside gate, saves you walking road as beaches are another 2 hrs from where it leaves you. Take a packed lunch if you can it's expensive in the park. Stay close by the park if you have time, Costeño Beach is lovely. Park opens until about 6 currently.

Amazing experience. I went in a rainfall season so I couldn’t dive into the waters and the path was muddy and savage to cross. And I say that as positive, if you enjoy some randonné yourself, this is the perfect place near Santa Marta. You’ll find yourself with other tourists and a feeling of safety during your walk. Also be prepared to meet Colombia’s mangrove swamps, just be sure to not have cuts on your feet and to clean them properly after your walk. There is also a selection of treetop bungalows and a camping area to stay the night.
