Nuquí (Chocó)
Exotic destination located on the Colombian Pacific coast, ideal for lovers of nature and tranquility. It is a place that shines for the natural wealth of flora and fauna, also because it offers an ideal environment to disconnect from city life and surrender to rest.
Waterfalls, crystal clear rivers, secluded beaches and hot springs mix with the diversity of species of birds, reptiles and amphibians. Humpback whale watching is the most prized activity (from July to November).

Bahía Solano (Chocó)
Splendid mountains covered by an impregnable blanket of rainforest and the warm waters of the Colombian Pacific give refuge to Bahia Solano, an ideal spot to stop and explore all that the rich nature of Chocó has to offer.
The charm of Bahia Solano is such that, in addition to captivating travelers, it also attracts humpback whales that make a long journey from Chile to give birth and raise their calves in this sanctuary of secluded waters.
Places to visit:
Capurganá (Chocó)
Capurganá is a spectacular bay bathed by the blues of the Caribbean Sea, very close to the border with Panama. It offers its visitors quiet beaches with crystal clear waters, contrasted by the charms of the Darien jungle.
These conditions allow for great biodiversity and beauty in the landscapes, thanks to the variety of terrestrial ecosystems such as forests, beaches, rivers, mangroves, islands and waterfalls. Additionally, it is possible to enjoy the beauty of the marine world such as corals, fish and turtles, among others, just a few meters from the beach.
