San Andres

San Andres is an island that resembles… a seahorse. It is located over 700 km from the Colombian coastline and only 150 km from Nicaragua. Its relatively close neighbor is another island - Providencia. San Andres looks just like the picture. A beautiful coastline, turquoise sea, white sand and numerous coconut palms that cover its area.

Does this island have any disadvantages? One! Namely, there are wild crowds in high season. Then forget about empty beaches and peace. In addition, in the capital of the island, San Andres, there is a lot of noise then and it is rather difficult to find silence and a moment of rest. But the further away from the most popular resorts, the calmer it should be. Be sure to visit the tiny island of Johnny Cay , famous for its beautiful views, tall palm trees and an idyllic atmosphere.

For whom?

If you like typical resorts and are not afraid of crowds, then you should like San Andres Island. It is also a good proposition if you are looking for Caribbean beaches like from a travel agency folder.
