I love living in Cali. It’s a fun city, but it’s known for it’s nightlife, not it’s wildlife, and it is missing one of my favorite things: the ocean. Which is why, of all the places close to Cali that I have visited, the Pacific Coast of Colombia is my favorite. The first time I went, I was completely taken in by how different the coast was from Cali: green, lush and completely undeveloped. Four months later I returned, but this time for whale watching season. Not only did I take a boat out to see some whales, but I was able to kayak right up to them as well! Last Spring, I went a third time, after convincing some visiting friends that it was a place they couldn’t miss while in Colombia.
