Providencia and Santa Catalina Islands. This tranquil, culturally rich archipelago is just a 1½-hour flight from the mainland coast (Cartagena). The 35km coral reef offers guaranteed views of astounding wildlife (visibility here is often a superb 40m), which include sting rays and eels, making this area a diver’s paradise.

Many of the hotels in Providencia have their bookings arranged by the all inclusive hotel chain Decameron. In addition it is possible to stay at the luxury hotel Deep Blue, Pirata Morgan Hotel, Hotel Sirius, and Sol Caribe hotel, all of whom take independent bookings. There are a handful of other small, locally run guesthouses in addition, called “Posadas Nativas” or Native Inns, run by the local Raizal people. These are bed and breakfast style including a homemade traditional island breakfast, and hosts speak English and Creole, which is great for international speakers who speak English and not Spanish.
