Guajira

Go off the beaten track and be rewarded with the stunning sceneries of the northernmost spot of South America.

 

La Guaijira is where ocean meets desert and where time seems to stand still. It is home to  the indigenous Wayuu people, whose women wear typical colorful dresses that flare gorgeously in the neverending winds.

 

Time passes by slowly as every day is hot and the climate dry. The sandy landscapes are dotted with cacti, bushes, goats, and blueish lagoons where you can spot amazing birds.

 

It is a windsurfers´paradise but anyone up for some adventure, relaxing time, delicious lobster, and with a sense of curiousity to one of Colombia´s most peculiar regions will definitely enjoy their visit!
