La Piscina beach

La Piscina is a beach in the Tayrona park (Colombia) being the only one suitable for swimming. Due to the home reef, there are no big waves, nor strong currents. The coast is very nice, - though not so spectacular like some other beaches located nearby. Shore and seabed: sand, stones. [edit]

How to get there [edit]

Fly to Cartagena international airport (CTG). Then get by bus or by taxi to one of the towns located around the Tayrona park, - in most cases these are Santa Marta or Taganga.

The tour to Park includes boat transportation (from one hour per way) or by bus. In the last case you'll have to walk from road to the beach, - about 1.5 hours of hard walking through the jungle.
