Old Providence & Santa Catalina
One of the Best Kept Secrets in the Caribbean
Isla de Providencia...
Historically Old Providence, and generally known as Providencia, is a mountainous Caribbean island that is part of the Colombian department of Archipelago of San Andrés, Providencia and Santa Catalina and the municipality of Providencia and Santa Catalina Islands, lying midway between Costa Rica and Jamaica
Having personally traveled to Old Providence several times over the past 10 years, I fell in love with the area and all that it has to offer.
As a result of my many trips there, I began to think of how many other people would, like me, be enchanted by the beauty of this place and its people. I began to realize that the knowledge I have gained through my travels to the area enable me to facilitate more convenient trips for others, who can benefit from my experiences. I have been able to search out the best places to stay, as well as finding the best (and most reasonably priced) dive operation.
