Puerto Colombia
For many generations, Puerto Colombia has been the favorite beach get-away for Barranquilleros. With broad, clean, dusky-beige sand beaches and warm sea (which is a bit muddy, though) and being only 13 kilometers (8 miles) from the city, it isn’t hard to see why. Many eateries line the strand, offering the best the ocean has to offer. In the late 19th century, Puerto Colombia was an important port; its 1893 pier and other buildings of the period are now tourist attractions. Other places to visit include fortress Castillo de Salgar and beaches at Prado Mar and Sabanilla. Lago del Cisne is a destination to practice water sports.
