After your early surf sessions, you will have the option to visit the national park of Utria. Every year, hundreds of whales escape the Antarctic cold and undertake a journey of 8,000 kilometers to arrive punctually in July in the Colombian Pacific, their summer residence. The visitors stay here for up to 4 months to give birth to their babies and raise them. The area is therefore perfect for its sighting and to start expeditions in the tropical forest.
