Feedback on the boat trip to Tayrona Park (Colombia)

Hi there, I just wanted to warn those who want to reach the beaches of Tayrona Park by lancha. If you're not a fan of thrills or prone to seasickness, opt for the car instead. We did this 40-minute lancha trip to Playa Cristal, with rough seas and huge waves that nearly capsized the boat several times. And we arrived at Playa Cristal completely soaked—though that wasn’t too bad, really...

Anyway, the beaches and the park are amazing.

Yeah, you’d better have your sea legs!

Otherwise, the beaches and the park are amazing.

Also be careful when swimming at any of the beaches from Santa Marta to Palomino and beyond… The sea is dangerous due to strong currents!
