San Andres Isla – laid back diving paradise

We decided that we needed some holiday from our holiday :), so we flew to the beautiful colombian  island of San Andres. Our hostel was really nice. It was a posada native, which means you stay with a local family in your own room, The family was really helpful and gave us a lot insider tips on how to enjoy the island most.
We spend our week driving around the island with a golf car (yes, right a golf car although there is no golf place on the island…), kayaking, snorkeling and diving in the crystal-clear waters of the caribbean with thousands of sea urchins and drinking beer at some rastafari-place next to a lagoon with crocodiles.
Although we were totally relaxed since traveling South America we slowed down even a little bit more on this laid back Caribbean island.
