Capurganá

On this location the soundtrack sings “Endless vacations! Endless vacations!” or “Vamos a la playa oh oh oh”. Here everybody seems happy, children, old people, ladies, dogs, birds… everybody. The wind blows fresh breeze all the time and the mornings are awesome.

You can see the most awesome sunrise, I must confess I always thought that the most important thing at the beach were the sunset, but I thought that because I never had seen before a sunrise at the beach, the sun appears slowly from the sea shy and beautiful and the ocean looks great with his early sunlight bath. This place has wonderful coral reefs, too many different kinds of sand (soft and bleach, gray and dull, tiny rocks, mollusc cemetery…), it is really cool to swim with mask to see the life underwater, maybe you could have a meeting with Sebastian the crab of The Little Mermaid, and sing with him “under the sea, under the sea…”. The weekends you can go to the main square, there is a football field where people sell things and food, hang out with friends, there are some nightclubs for having drinks and dance.

To go to Capurganá just follow this route: once you’re in Colombia point yourself to Medellín, at Medellín take a bus to Turbo (this bus must be taken at night because no one go there on day time) the trip Medellín – Turbo takes around eight hours. Then, at Turbo take the speedboat to Capurganá, hold yourself strongly to the boat (sometimes the weather is bad and the waves crush so violently the boat), later enjoy the view.
