This fantastic adventure begins at 8:30 am from Riohacha, and then headed for Manaure through a deserted road. In Manaure, Colombia’s largest salt complex, we have a guided tour about the process of extracting salt and then pass by Uribia, indigenous capital of Colombia, we will have a brief overview of the place and then we cross the majestic desert to reach Cabo de la Vela. Here we have lunch and rest to visit later Arco-iris Beach, Pilón de Azúcar and finally the lighthouse where we’ll enjoy a beautiful sunset. We return to the Ranchería to spend the night in hammocks.
On the second day of our adventure we leave about 8:00 am, after breakfast, we take a road surrounded by desert to Punta Gallinas. We pass by the Parque Eólico (Wind Park) to take pictures, we keep going through the deserted way bordering Bahia Honda and Bahía Hondita and finally reach the enigmatic Punta Gallinas approximately at 2:00 pm for lunch. We can spend the afternoon resting at the lodging and enjoying the beauty of the landscape.
Early after breakfast visit the Dunes Taroa. It is in this beautiful scenario of sand, where we will have the opportunity to perform Sandboarding, an activity that consists on descending through the dunes with special boards similar to those used for Snowboarding.
Before gliding through the fine yellow sand of the dune, being at the top, we can have a general view of the entire landscape, look at the immense Caribbean Sea and feel our heart speed up because we are about to live an unprecedented experience.
Then we will go to the lighthouse of Punta Gallinas, the northernmost point of South America, and then the beach of Punta Agujas to take a refreshing swimming on its warm waters and enjoy the beautiful sunset, finally we return to our hostel for spending the third night.
After three days enjoying the charm that surrounds the environment of Cabo de La Vela and Punta Gallinas, we will finally return on the fourth day to Riohacha.
