7	Thursday, 1/15/26	About San Andres Island San Andres is 700 km from the Colombian mainland, a miniature paradise with influences from England and Spain, pirates and corsairs, blended into a rich culture which moves to the beat of reggae. Perfect beaches, excellent water-sports, diving and ecotourism. Your first glimpse of San Andres island is the sea of seven colors, home to many-hued fish and coral, working their magic on the visitor. After an afternoon on the beach or shopping duty-free, night falls and the air is alive with music and dancing. San Andres Island Attractions On the island's northern tip lies the main town and commercial center, known by the same name as the island. San Andres Town is surrounded by beaches, with small hotels lining the waterfront. Being a duty-free zone, the town often gets crowded with Colombian shoppers who come from the mainland looking for foreign-made goods at duty-free prices. To reach the town from the tender landing requires an approximate 20-minute taxi ride. However, it is not uncommon for drivers to choose the longer way around the island for a higher fare. From the downtown waterfront, boats offer trips to Johnny Cay, a tiny island just a stone's throw across from town and known for its powdery white sand beach and rustic, laid-back atmosphere. San Andres Island Activities Under a blue sky that blends in with the sea of seven colors, San Andres mixes relaxation with any number of activities to let you experience the intensity of the lifestyle of the islanders: Island tour on a motorbike or golf-cart. Night-life in the bar, partying on the beach Sun and sand. Good-food tour. Diving and snorkeling in La Piscinita, West View and El Cove. Launch trip to the Aquarium, Haynes Cay and then Johnny Cay. Shopping in the duty-free area to the north. Bird-watching and ecotourism. Water sports: windsurf, kite-surfing, jet skiing. San Andres Island, Colombia	7:00am	12:00pm
8	Friday, 1/16/26	About Puerto Limon Located on Costa Rica's Caribbean shores, Puerto Limon is one of the nations largest cities. Columbus stumbled upon the city in 1502, during his final voyage of discovery. Spanish explorers who followed, mistakenly declared this land to be the "rich coast"; however, little gold was found. Today, the city's riches come in the form of bananas, shipped from Limon to destinations around the world. Puerto Limon Attractions Glide across the canopy of the rain forest in a tram at the Braulio Carrillo National Park. It's a beautiful way to see the fragile ecosystem of the rain forest up close. Puerto Limon Activities Head to the mountains on an off-road adventure in an all-terrain vehicle - TERRA-X6. Your adventure includes a visit to the small village of Bananito, an amazing drive through the forest, past cattle ranches and banana plantations and incredible ocean views. Absorb the tranquility of the Tortuguero canals as you float dreamily up to the north of Limón. Take in the fragrance of white ginger blossoms, lavender water hyacinths and the ilan ilan flower. Puerto Limon, Costa Rica	6:00am	7:00pm
9	Saturday, 1/17/26	About Bocas Del Toro The islands offer the visitor a great diversity of attractions and natural environments, uncommon to other regions of our continent: luxurious rain forests with an abundance of fauna and flora, sunny islands, beaches that compete with the Caribbean best, coral reefs in crystal clear water, mangrove islets in a lake-like scenery, guaymi indian villages and a national marine park that protects examples of the ecosystems and natural resources coexisting within the Archipelago boundaries, as a tribute to our future generations. Bocas Del Toro Attractions Getting to the Zapatillas Keys can be a dicey proposition when a strong north wind is blowing, but if the weather is cooperating, these two islands are gems. Part of the Bastimientos Island National Marine Park, they have beautiful, white-sand beaches and clear, shallow, snorkel-perfect water. (If you want to escape the heat, the adjacent forest offers shade.) Just don't expect a crowd; the only residents are park rangers. Bocas Del Toro, Panama	6:00am	--
