Just 150km east of Nicaragua and some 800km northwest of mainland Colombia, the seahorse-shaped island of San Andrés is best known as Colombia's favorite weekend getaway, where mainlanders love to come to drink, tax-free shop, sunbathe and party. San Andrés Town, the focus of the action, won't be splashed across postcards any time soon, though it does boast an attractive beach promenade and has in recent years begun to address what might be charitably termed its beauty gap.

Indeed, San Andrés is best appreciated outside the downtown area known as El Centro. Whether you take a boat trip to one of the idyllic offshore cays, check out the excellent scuba diving and snorkeling opportunities or head down the scenic 30km road encircling the rest of the island, this quirky place where Anglo-Caribbean Raizal culture grinds up against the far more recently imported Colombian one, often manages to charm visitors in the end.

San Andrés and the nearby islands of Providencia and Santa Catalina form the department of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina. San Andrés, in the southern group of islands, is the largest of the department. The official languages of the department are Spanish, English, and San Andrés–Providencia Creole. This archipelago encompasses a total area of 57km² including the outer cays, reefs, atolls and sand banks, with the area of the islands being 45km². In 2000 it was declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, named “Seaflower Biosphere Reserve”, which not only includes the islands but also about 10% of the Caribbean Sea, amounting to a vast marine area of 300,000km². The purpose of this declaration is to ensure that the ecosystem, which is rich in biodiversity, is well preserved and conserved

Isla de San Andrés is a small Caribbean island that one can drive around in an hour, including a stop or two for taking photos and admiring the scenery. That's the whole island in one hour! We found out during our stay that the most convenient way, and cheapest, was organising a private tour of San Andrés including all the sights we wanted to see. The private tour was arranged at our Posada, as was the diving, through the owner at Posada Nativa Miss Trinie. This video does not include touristic locations as the Acuario, the alleged cave where Sir Henry Morgan hid his treasures, the Piscinita etc.
