Providencia, Columbia



We're at N13deg.22min / W081deg.22min
What a lovely, clean, safe, friendly island paradise! This is a mountainous island of volcanic origin. The check in procedure was a breeze, boats have to use 'Mr. Bush' as their agent--he's been welcoming cruisers for 25yrs.--what a gentleman! Population around 4500; very family orientated; they are proud of their 'no crime' reputation. We're sharing the anchorage with 16 other yachts- some going north, others going south toward Panama. Hailing from many different countries. Supplies come by small freighter from San Andres- 55 miles to the south. We're thrilled to have internet access (though slow) in town.
