Surf School on Caribbean Coast
I have just came from Santa Marta, Colombia and stayed at Casa Grande just outside of Park Tayrona. I rented a surf board, went for a hike and stayed for the weekend. I had an awesome time at Costeno surf school, thank. For more info go to www.costenosurf.com

Nicaragua Is far from safe too and i don't see anyone writting such a bad comment about it.

I have been there and it is as safe as traveling tru central america.

Nice beaches, nice waves, sheap, and Nuqui and Valle are in the midle of the jungle, if you don't know, One of the thickest in the world.

FARC KIDNAP TOURISTS IN CHOCO
Well folks they let a few go and grab a few more. Here are some links to articles on the recent snatch of six tourists between Nuqui and Valle.

Far from safe. If your Spanish is not excelent DO NOT GO. If you stand out as a gringo, DO NOT GO. 99% of all visitors to this area are Colombian. Good luck to those who decide to chance it....

Nuqui Trip
Great! So where did you stay and how did you access the surf. I understand that the lodges in the area (i.e., El Cantil) are very expensive with boat rental at $200 per day. Can you give details. You can write me at antioquia3@earthlink.net THANKS.

Soul surfing Ireland....Colombia
Where I surf its so cold your head hurts and the suits are 5:4 mm - I meet my friends who are farmers, carpenters, writers, marine biologists in the water (none of whom wear surf-brand clothing - wooly jumpers more like) and we socialise in the rain / and depend on each other too. We have green mountains in the background and rainbows and dolpins.....and no travelling surf trash with their competitiveness and aggressiveness.

ColOmbians and ColOmibianas...I hope to share your waves with you soon and any information you could give me about your Pacific coast would be greatly appreciated. I would love to surf in ColOmbia this winter.

choco
Just got back from Choco. Took ferry-Buena Venturea(hole),24hs+ no bed, no freeboard(100mil). Stayed "Nativos" El Valle, Rosa good cook(15 mil-night). High tide beaches, gets plenty swell, but b grade. Got burgled in Nuqui from hotel (i think owners son). Had to leave. Advice: Beg, borrow or steal boat go to sw side of Cabo Corrientes, camp out.
