We couldn't decide where we should go after Cartagena, even now that we had our Bible (The Lonely Planet). In the end we went with the easiest option - follow our new friends from the boat to Taganga and Parque Nacional Natural Tayrona. Done.
We didn't know much about either but they turned out to be beautiful. Taganga is a small town set on a horseshoe bay. The colours there are amazing, all deep blues and oranges. Taganga made it feel like I was finally really in Colombia.
We had an afternoon in Taganga before heading over to check out PNN Tayrona.There's a little bit of trekking and a whole of lazing on beaches here. We stayed for one night in the park where there's not a whole lot to do after dark. Pro Tip: bring cards and friends. On our second day we beach crawled all the way back to entrance, quite a relaxing two day and some prime reading time.

| The water is so cold and the sun so hot |

| Where we spent the night, all the hammocks were full |

| Thanks to Alex's efforts we got to snack on some fresh coconut. Throwing them against a rock really does work! |
After PNN Tayrona we spent a couple of more nights in Taganga were we danced to
Bailando (a Latin American Staple) at possibly the world's windiest club.
