White Beach -A piece of paradise
White Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in Colombia. I visited it last summer, and it was an unforgettable experience. The white sand, turquoise water, and peaceful atmosphere make it a perfect place to relax and disconnect from the world.
Recommended Activities
There are many fun things to do at the beach. You can take a boat ride on the lagoon or even try paragliding with a local guide.
If you prefer to relax, you can have a picnic by the lake or take photos of the amazing landscape. You could also rent a motorbike to explore the area; it's a great way to discover hidden spots.
If you're brave enough, you can swim in the cold water!
You must try the local trout; it’s delicious!
If you visit on a sunny day, you will enjoy the experience even more.
How to get there
White Beach is located on the eastern shore of Lake Tota, near the town of Aquitania in Boyaca. You can get there by car or bus from Tunja or Sogamoso. The road is in good condition, and the trip offers beautiful views of the mountains and countryside. If you travel by car, you will enjoy more flexibility and have the chance to stop at different viewpoints along the way.
