Cabo San Juan is a beautiful beach in the Tayrona National Park.. and it’s a one hour, very bumpy boat ride away from Taganga. When we were in Playa del Amor, we towed an upside-down turned boat that had carried 12 passengers on their way to on of the beaches there.. they lost all of their belongings in the waves and were picked up by our captain while we were diving. So no, the memory of that, plus the big waves and the speed were not the right ingredients for a pleasant boat ride.. it was painful, uncomfortable and quite scary.. but then again – it took us to a palm tree filled paradise. And back.
