Puerto Columbia

The mission to get to the beach will not be an easy one we need to make a long drive along a narrow and winding road through the Henri Pittier National Park we passed several colorful buses loaded with beach goers, we are lead to the top of the mountain, through the cloud forest, home to several animals, insects and plants, to then bring us down to sea-level, driving us smack bang into the middle of the colonial town of Choroní.

We eventually arrived, dropped off our bags and headed straight into town for a bite to eat, out for a few drinks and then off to bed as we have a big day at the beach planned.

I awoke with excitement had breakfast and headed straight for the beach. Just a short 10 minute walk and before I knew it was was there on the white sandy beaches of Playa Grande in Horseshoe Bay. This fringed with coconut palms with a spectacular backdrop of lush green mountains. Perfect don't you think for a day of relaxation and swimming.


Not long now and this tour will come to an end.
