Minca

If you are planning a trip to the Northern Coast of Colombia, you’ll want to include Minca in your itinerary. Perched in the Sierra Nevada mountains is a small village overlooking the Caribbean coast. With less than 1000 inhabitants, this locale is a hidden treasure well worth the detour. 

In 1980, UNESCO declared Minca a World Heritage Site, Biosphere, and Mankind Reserve. Its privileged location between bustling Santa Marta beach and the Sierra Nevada mountain ranges make it a unique site. The tropical rainforest has temperatures ranging between 62 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit and the trees reach a height of 40 meters. 

Minca is home to 19 species of native birds; however, you’ll have the opportunity to see up to 162 species. These include toucans, macaws, sparrows, oropendolas and even 20 varieties of hummingbirds.

Reconnect with Nature

Total immersion experience, starry nights, dawn with the cooing of the birds and the whisper of the river, walks full of content and learning, respect and affection for this great ecosystem.

What a magical place! We had an incredible time here, the Treehouse was beautifully decorated and had everything we could need. The location is stunning, right in the middle of the jungle, it's the ideal place to unwind and connect with nature. We loved the hammock and the outdoor shower! Everyone was so lovely and went out of their way to make us feel welcome! An unforgettable experience, would recommend to everyone!

This place is a must see if you like to connect more with nature and its surroundings. The treehouse is beautiful and well equipped! We loved waking up to the sounds of the birds. The yoga classes were great as well! However, I was not very fond of the communication. I felt like I was asking too many questions. We extended our stay with 2 more nights because we loved the calmness. But they never offered to provide us with clean towels, though everything gets wet during the night because you’re still in the forest. Also, they don’t really have drinks at the restaurant. Not even juices during the day. We decided to get meals at the place next doors, Siembra.
