There’s a remote island in Colombia that’s one of the most beautiful things we’ve ever seen. It’s known as the island with a sea of seven colors and you can easily see why.
Providencia is located about 500 miles north-west of mainland Colombia. It was one of England’s first colonies and today it’s simply a beautiful remote island where you can have the vacation of your dreams. It doesn’t get too many visitors but has a rich history and a unique cultural identity.
You can get to Providencia from the larger island of San Andrés located 30 miles south. The journey can get relatively expensive so there are never too many people boarding the ferry.
Around 5,000 people live in Providencia. Their language is English-based Creole. The island is safe and peaceful. The residents mostly live off of tourism and fishing. Many of them are into gardening, too.
There are big and small beaches on the island that you can enjoy based on your preference. Just make sure you’re not sitting under a palm tree because you don’t want a coconut hitting you! More commercial islands remove the coconuts but that’s not the case here.
