Isla Grande is not so big

Isla Grande, Colombia

Hotel Eco Campo Verde
We let Playa Blanco this morning at 8:30 am. The water was calm for the 1-1/2 hour boat ride here. It only got more beautiful as we approached Isla Grande. 

I think that that was Pablo Escobar’s house?


Our hotel is not right on the water. It is about a 5 minute walk. Perhaps we will move in a few days, but for now we are very content. So far we have not heard many English speaking people. Most of the tourists seem to be upscale Colombians. 


The water is crystal clear and blue like the sky, and the beach is glowing white sand. We have only explored a small part of this island. If there are cars here we have not seen any, so except for the chatter of the people it is very quiet. Just the way we like it.
