Bahia Concha is a beach in the west of Tayrona National Park, Colombia. The beach is open from 8 am to 4 pm, - so no evening chill. The sand is somewhat coarse, but still nice enough. There are many trees ashore, but no palms at all. There are also beautiful mountains around. You'll have to walk 20 minutes from the parking lot. But the place is still crowded. Sunbeds are available for rental, as well as some food and drinks for sale. But everything is overpiced. Shore and seabed: sand.
