A Tropical Paradise

The idyllic nature of Tayrona National Park, or Parque Tayrona, one of the enchanting national parks in Colombia, is
home to beach after stunning beach, concealed by jungle forest and dramatic hills. Tayrona National Park offers a
significant change of pace from exploring Colombia’s lively, bustling cities, not to mention it has picture-perfect scenery.

Situated in the northern part of Colombia’s coast, it includes 150 square kilometers of land and another 30 square
kilometers of marine reserve. Besides its natural bounty, the park and neighboring mountains are home to various
indigenous communities and several ruins of past settlements.

Tayrona Culture Experience
CULTURE

Tayrona National Park is home to its very own version of the famous Lost City. Pueblito is the archaeological ruins of a former Tayrona indigenous city and can be reached via a strenuous hike up into the hills from Cabo San Juan. You will clamber over giant boulders and work up quite a sweat, but it’s well worth it to see the ruins of a city that was built thousands of years ago in the jungle. Tayrona is also home to the local Kogi indigenous people, descendants of the Tairona culture. 

Tayrona Adventure Experience
ADVENTURE

The numerous hiking trails in Tayrona National Park are perfect for wildlife lovers who are interested in discovering flora and fauna native to the Colombian Caribbean. Want a break from the hike? Horseback riding through Tayrona’s many incredible trails is an equally as exciting option. For those interested in adventure, the waters around Tayrona are teeming with coral reefs and colorful fish of all shapes and sizes. Scuba enthusiasts can enjoy incredible dives around Tayrona National Park in nearby Taganga or Santa Marta, from where you’ll take a boat out to the wildlife-rich waters and plunge beneath the surface to enjoy all the natural wonders of the aquatic part of the National Park.  

Tayrona Nature Experience
NATURE

Tayrona is, first and foremost, a national park – and that’s down to the remarkable biodiversity of flora and fauna within its boundaries. From rare, endemic poison dart frogs, to giant boa constrictors, as well as plenty of birds, mammals, and insects, the park is teeming with amazing animals. Colombia has more species of birds than anywhere else on Earth, and Tayrona is a great place to observe some of the most beautiful – and rarest – in the wild. From the charismatic keel-billed toucans and lance-tailed manakins to the shy and difficult-to-observe blue-knobbed curassow, Tayrona is a bird-watching enthusiast’s dream destination.
