SAN ANDRÉS

Spratt Bight beach

This is the largest and most famous beach in San Andrés, with a strategic location near restaurants, bars, hotels, shops and supermarkets. It is known for its fine, white sand, its crystal-clear water and for being the ideal space to enjoy the sun, do sand sports, swim and go snorkelling.

San Luis is a small village inhabited by locals, where the wooden houses preserve the island’s colourful architecture. Its beaches are perfect for those seeking peace and quiet. With white sand, turquoise water, coconut palms and lush, tropical vegetation, it is a popular area for those who enjoy snorkelling, in a combination of incredible marine biodiversity, coral reefs and clear water. 

It is located in the south of the island, away from the tourist centre, and in an area known for the peacefulness of the water, protected from sea currents and swells by an extensive coral reef. In this area, you can enjoy the quieter side of the island, away from the big hotels, and see a more diverse flora and fauna.

This is a typical house which operates as a museum dedicated to highlighting the island’s cultural heritage. You can enjoy discovering the history of the locals as you walk around the building, where you can see photographs, architecture, dances and items from ancient times which highlight the history, customs, traditions and ethnic values of the culture.

This curious cave encapsulates the history of one of the best-known characters of the sea, Pirate Morgan, who robbed thousands of sailors at high sea, becoming rich and powerful and thus wanting to find somewhere to hide his great treasure. One day while sailing he found an enormous, deep cave and decided it was the right place to hide his entire fortune from the eyes of his enemies.

As the story goes, many brave souls have tried to find Pirate Morgan’s treasure, but without success. The water that surrounds the cave has gone down over the years and according to legend, when the water recedes completely, the site of the treasure will be revealed.

There is nothing as beautiful or incredible as nature as it often surprises us with phenomena to which we can find no explanation. This is certainly the case when it comes to the Hoyo Soplador, a natural phenomenon that occurs when the wind and the water come together to force a jet of water up from the ground, reaching several metres tall, making it a must-see spot for tourists and a favourite place for the locals.

This is the perfect place to enjoy yourself and learn about the island’s diverse vegetation, see the colours of the flowers and trees, the intense green of the vegetation and get up close to nature. Its main attraction is a viewing point that is 12 metres high with 5 levels which tourists can reach at the end of the path. From here, you can see San Andrés Island and the beautiful turquoise colour of the ocean.
