The Pacific Riviera: A Marine Adventure Corridor
Along its 40 kilometers of coastline, the Pacific Riviera offers multiple options for active tourism linked to the sea. During the appropriate season, it is possible to go whale watching and participate in sailing routes to the islands of Otoque, Boná, and Estivá, destinations of ecological and scenic interest.

Surfing and beaches for all levels.
Playa Teta has established itself as one of the most renowned surfing spots, with consistent waves that allow both beginners and advanced surfers to enjoy the activity. El Palmar and Playa Malibú complement this offering with more challenging conditions, ideal for those looking to perfect their technique or enjoy more intense waves.

Rowing, wind, and adrenaline:
Santa Clara stands out for its calm waters, ideal for paddleboarding and kayaking, making it a recommended option for family or low-impact recreational activities. In contrast, Punta Chame is the ideal setting for wind sports such as windsurfing and kitesurfing, thanks to its constant breezes and open space.
