Palomino is a small and laidback village on Colombia’s Caribbean coast that has a hip and happening feel. Tropical birds swoop through its streets and it’s home to pristine Colombian beaches that stretch all the way to the foothills of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta mountains. The sea currents here are famously fierce, which is why most visitors hire inner tubes and float down the river before tucking into a hearty supper of freshly-caught fish.

The beautiful beaches in Tayrona National Park, close to the city of Santa Marta, are some of Colombia’s most famous, thanks to their soft sands, crashing waves and huge, iconic rock formations (not to mention the palm trees). Visitors tend to camp, rent hammocks or stay in the comfortable eco-hab cabins.

The Lost City, or Ciudad Perdida, is more than just the destination for a gruelling five-day hike through the jungle near Santa Marta, which concludes with the ascent of some 1,200 stone steps to reach the city itself. For the nearby Kogi, Arhuaco and Wiwa peoples, this is a sacred place that was once the political and manufacturing center for their ancestors, the Tairona. The hike itself passes several indigenous villages and recreations as to how the Tairona lived. One tour company that runs hikes to the site, Wiwa Tour, is also indigenous owned and run.
