Get to Bogota, take a bus to Tunja (Boyaca) then switch (last bus to Villa de Leyva leaves at 19:00 so be careful otherwise you will get stuck there) take a small bus from there. There's also a direct bus so you don't have to switch but there are only 2 or 3 a day so you must get informed first. Fo any other info or pictures of my trips there please email me at danielbernate@gmail.com. I will gladly help you in anyway, guide you or get you there.

It's a large protected natural park, kilometers of great white pristine beaches right by the rainforest, exuberant and incredible wildlife, nice people, nice food (don't miss the chocolate filled bread), ancient ruins, excellent weather, beautiful women. It's a great place to visit, but please, don't be a tourist, and take care of the place.

You can sleep in hammocks, camp or sleep in a small hotel or in some government administrated ecological houses - this place is awesome you can stay there for ever and never get tired.

Please be aware of powerful underwater currents and the powerful waves because there are no hospitals or lifeguards nearby. As this is a protected wild area you must consider there are wild animals and insects so get all the medicines you need for allergies or any other stuff. You must consult the Colombian government website for the shots you must get to enter certain areas (yellow fever, malaria and any other required) otherwise you might not be allowed to enter and of course you might get deadly sick and..........yes....die.

From Bogota fly or take a bus to Santa Marta, then ask a local where to find transportation to the park, don't be fooled, don't pa more than $7 dollars, the bus will drop you at the entrance and from there you walk through the rain forest, you must pay an entrance fee and negotiate the price of the accomodation but is around 2 - 7 per night per person in a camping site or hammocks. for more info or photos of my trips to this place email me at danielbernate@gmail.com I will gladly give you info, guide you or whatever you need.
