The Colombian Beaches Featured in Corona’s 2026 Beach 100 Guide

Corona’s 2026 Beach 100 guide has recognized four Colombian beaches as some of the world’s most extraordinary destinations. Palomino, Isla Corona, Playa del Cabo, and McBean Lagoon are celebrated for their natural beauty, cultural significance, and conservation efforts.

Palomino, nestled between the Caribbean Sea and the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, offers a unique landscape where mountain and sea merge. Located in La Guajira, it is accessible via road from Santa Marta and boasts sandy beaches, river activities, and a laid-back atmosphere.

Isla Corona, part of the Rosario Islands in Bolívar, showcases crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs. Accessible by boat from Cartagena de Indias, this destination emphasizes marine conservation and activities like diving and snorkeling.

Playa del Cabo, within Tayrona National Natural Park in the Magdalena department, is a protected area where visitors can explore the rainforest and coastal landscapes. The journey to the beach is as much a part of the experience as the destination itself, with park regulations ensuring the preservation of its unique ecosystems.
