#32 IN THE WORLD

A TROPICAL BAY FRAMED BY DENSE JUNGLE

Being located within Tayrona National Natural Park, Cabo San Juan del Guía feels closely tied to the surrounding jungle, with the dense vegetation pressing right up against the golden sand. This is a place you feel truly connected with nature. Two adjoining bays are split by a narrow rocky outcrop, where there is a small hut that looks out over both sides. Each side of the cove has slightly different conditions where one tends to stay calmer and is better suited for swimming, while the other is more exposed to the open sea. Getting there involves a hike through the jungle or arriving by boat, which helps keep the atmosphere peaceful. It’s this combination of thick vegetation, warm-toned sand, and limited access that gives Cabo San Juan del Guía a strong, unique character.
