  • We caught the flight from San Andrés to Providencia (Colombia’s Caribbean island paradise) and took up about half of the seats! We then checked in at our guest house and rented some bikes so that we could scoot around the island. We checked out the local dive shops and a small beach before heading to Southwest Bay for lunch. In the afternoon we did a full lap of the island and watched the sunset on almond beach with coconuts and cocktails. 12/2/20

    One weird thing that most people don't know: before the Portuguese brought them there, the Caribbean did not have coconuts at all. So imagine those beaches... without the palm trees.

    Visited Providencia in 1979. The plane was much smaller and I sat on the floor . I stayed with a lady and her son. An experience like no other. Traveled the whole island by foot and motor scooter.

      Ahhh it is a phenomenal place - and because accessibility is an issue and there's not a huge amount of places to stay it's retained a lot of its charm. Although it was hit pretty badly by a hurricane so I really hope that the process of rebuilding is going well. Anyway, thanks a bunch for watching, Teddy! Glad you enjoyed it 😁
