Cruises from Isla Gorgona
Gorgona Island lies 56 km off the Pacific coast of Colombia. The island was used as a prison for only the worst-of-the-worst criminals until 1983 when it was turned into a National Natural Reservation Park noted for a large number of endemic species, the richly varied wildlife of the sub-tropical forest, and the coral reefs offshore. The Island is also one of Colombia's best spots for whale watching, especially from July to September when humpback whales and their newborn are often seen.
