- So I wasn’t really expecting to like Punta Gallinas, the northernmost tip of South America that juts out from Colombia’s La Guajira desert.
- From Taroa we headed to the most northern point of South America, Punta Gallinas where we stayed with a Wayuu family for the night.
- Our Tour Cabo de la Vela Punta Gallinas starts with a pick up at our hotel to head to Riohacha, stopping for breakfast and rest from the trip.
- Since you won't be able to make it to Punta Gallinas the same day, you have to spend at least one night in Cabo de la Vela.
- Getting to South America's northernmost point isn't easy, but the trip to Punta Gallinas is well worth it, promising sand dunes, stars and magical sunsets.
- In Bahia Hondita and Punta Gallinas you can observe rock formations and cliffs, mangrove landscapes and sand dunes like the dunes of Taroa that flow...
- There’s no WiFi at hostels in Like Cabo de la vela and Punta Gallinas. Claro 2G network is available in some parts. Do not forget to carry mobile Powerbank.
- Also as I mentioned in the previous post; anything more than 150,000 COP for a tour around Cabo and transport to and from Punta Gallinas is a rip-off.
- * further photos are coming. John and I found ourselves a beautiful spot on a flat area right next to the inlet Punta Gallinas was named after.
