I’d heard of Minca before from friends and other travellers as a place of tranquility and fair to say it didn’t disappoint. Situated in the jungle along the north coast it was an enjoyable return of the landscapes I’d become accustomed to in San Carlos and San Rafael. It’s a surprisingly small village for how many tourists go there with the shops that do exist sell mushrooms, weed brownies, stick and poke tattoos and tarot readings, needless to say they’re appealing to a certain type. Along the same lines you can also do yoga every morning, Cacao ceremonies as well as bird watching but I spent my time hiking to waterfalls, swimming in the river and swinging in the hammock. I stayed at a hostel called Casa Loma which had a beautiful view over Santa Marta ( it’s much prettier from a distance ) and for sunset, they also had music and dance classes on different nights giving it a social vibe. I really enjoyed my time here and is a great place just to exist.
