Cape Vela 2 Days

RIOHACHA > CABO DE LA VELA

Let the adventure begin! We'll travel through salt lagoons and cactus forests along the road that will take us to Manaure. There, we'll stop and learn about the salt production process. Then we'll venture into the desert, heading towards Cabo de la Vela (Jepira, the place where the souls of the Wayuu people rest). We'll arrive in time for lunch, and afterward, we'll explore incredible places, such as Ojo de Agua, a place steeped in legend, and watch the sunset in a magical setting. Night will fall, bringing with it the opportunity to rest and enjoy the tranquility of the desert and a delicious traditional dinner.
