Sapzurro
A small fishing village at the northern end of Colombia's Caribbean coast. Its mountain-ringed bay is crystal clear, and it is quieter than Capurganá.
Sapzurro is about 3 kilometers from Capurganá. You can reach it by a 15-minute boat ride, or by a roughly 2-hour jungle trail over the hills, which is slippery and muddy after rain, so a guide or companions are recommended. The bay is horseshoe-shaped with emerald water, good for snorkeling and kayaking. The village has a small chapel, several family guesthouses and seafood restaurants. From a stairway behind the village, it takes about 20 minutes to climb to the Colombia-Panama border, and you can continue down to La Miel Beach.
