El pil\u00f3n de az\u00facar<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>An essential destination if you travel to Cabo de La Vela. It is a beach in the middle of nowhere with honey-coloured sand. It is protected by a large rock, also called Pil\u00f3n de Az\u00facar, which has an impressive view of the desert and the sea from the top, worthy of a poem by Porfirio Barba-Jacob. The beach looks untouched. There is no pollution whatsoever around it, and the wind blows constantly across the plain, blowing small grains of sand from your feet to your calves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is one of the most sacred and spiritual places for the Wayuu, as they know the Pil\u00f3n de Az\u00facar by the name of Jepira. It represents the place where the souls of the dead begin their journey to the other world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is is a pyramid-shaped hill that you can walk up very close to the bay of Cabo de la Vela. From Cabo de La Vela (where the chinchorros and Wayuu restaurants are located) you can plan to spend the whole day at Pil\u00f3n de Az\u00facar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"767\" data-attachment-id=\"24524\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/things-to-do-cabo-de-la-vela\/attachment\/playa-costa-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?fit=1024%2C767&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,767\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"playa-costa-colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?fit=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?fit=1024%2C767&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?resize=1024%2C767&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"El pil\u00f3n de az\u00facar Cabo de la Vela\" class=\"wp-image-24524\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?resize=768%2C575&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?resize=800%2C600&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?resize=400%2C300&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/playa-costa-colombia.jpg?resize=200%2C150&amp;ssl=1 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>El pil\u00f3n de az\u00facar<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-Ojo-de-Agua-Beach\"><\/span>2. Ojo de Agua Beach<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is recognised for the small water source it has. It also has a small beach and several cliffs where the sea meets the sea to form beautiful landscapes. The name of this place is due to its fresh water source, which helped the Way\u00fa people during extreme droughts suffered. You can also see a huge turtle-shaped rock, and it is ideal for walking and enjoying the breeze and the pleasant view of the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A quiet place, where you can buy Wayu handicrafts, and see the pil\u00f3n de az\u00facar from its beaches. Its cold waters are refreshing, and the sand on the beach is wonderful and soft in contrast to the heat of the desert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote alignwide\"><blockquote><p><em>To organize your trip we recommend using the <a href=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/auth\/signup?&amp;ref=blogpassporter3&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=things-to-do-in-cabo-de-la-vela&amp;utm_term=recommendation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Passporter<\/a>\u00a0where you can get inspiration from the experiences of other travellers and choose the places that most interest you to add to your route map.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-La-Macuira-National-Natural-Park\"><\/span>3.

It has a unique cloud forest ecosystem that functions as a water regulator for the region. An oasis in the middle of the aridity that sustains a great diversity of flora and fauna, specially adapted to survive, grow and reproduce in this type of environment. At the same time, it safeguards endemic and migratory bird species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is open from Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 17:00. Entrance to the Macuira Natural Park is completely <strong>free<\/strong>, you just have to register at the entrance and arrive with your guide to lead you through the different points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-Cabo-De-La-Vela-Lighthouse\"><\/span>4.

Tourists flock here every day to see this spectacle of colours at El Faro. The evening hours are the perfect time to visit it, a spot famous for its beautiful sunsets. From the top you can see the Ojo de Agua on one side and El Cabo beach on the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-Punta-de-Gallinas\"><\/span>5.

Manaure Salt Flats<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is the most important place in Colombia for salt exploitation; one million tons, around 70% of the country&#8217;s total capacity. The landscape of this remote place is made up of imposing white hills of salt that are reflected in water wells. Salt is extracted in huge pools of seawater which, as they dry out, change colour until the salt is left at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although most eyes are drawn to the salt flats, Manaure also offers a calm sea of greens and blues. Another attraction is the 50-metre long tourist pier with small fishing boats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-attachment-id=\"24527\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/colombia\/things-to-do-cabo-de-la-vela\/attachment\/mountains-colombia\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/mountains-colombia.jpg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,683\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"mountains-colombia\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/mountains-colombia.jpg?fit=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/mountains-colombia.jpg?fit=1024%2C683&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/mountains-colombia.jpg?resize=1024%2C683&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Manaure salt marshes at Cabo de la Vela\" class=\"wp-image-24527\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/mountains-colombia.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/mountains-colombia.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/mountains-colombia.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Manaure salt marshes at Cabo de la Vela<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7-Los-Flamencos-Flora-and-Fauna-Sanctuary\"><\/span>7.

You can also see beaches, coastal lagoons, a turtle tank that helps to conserve marine species and a visitor centre with accommodation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was declared National and Cultural Heritage of Colombia in 1992, aiming to protect the ecosystem of marshes, lagoons and dry forest, home to many species of birds, fish, crustaceans and plants. The graceful flamingos and the majestic colours of their plumage are the main attraction of the Sanctuary. Despite its small size, it is considered one of the richest protected areas in terms of the variety of endemic and migratory waterbirds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-499968f5 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/auth\/signup?&amp;ref=blogpassporter5&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=things-to-do-in-cabo-de-la-vela&amp;utm_term=register-free\" style=\"background-color:#2a7057\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Register for free on Passporter<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What-to-see-in-Cabo-de-la-Vela-in-1-day\"><\/span>What to see in Cabo de la Vela in 1 day?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Start your tour with the Macuira National Park.
