Getting to La Kuka is part of the adventure! From Medell\u00edn, you’ll fly on a 20-passenger plane for almost an hour, soaring over the Antioquia mountains and the Choc\u00f3 jungle to the town of Nuqu\u00ed. There, you’ll board a boat for a 45-minute ride across a portion of the Gulf of Tribug\u00e1, hugging the coastline of the Serran\u00eda del Baud\u00f3.
On the way, you might get your first glimpse of whales, fish, dolphins, and pelicans. Upon your arrival at the beaches of Guachalito, La Kuka will be waiting for you with a refreshing coconut water and a great team at your service! <\/p>

We are more than happy to help you book your round-trip flight.<\/p>

There are direct flights from Medell\u00edn and flights from Bogot\u00e1 with a layover in Quibd\u00f3. Private trips for large groups can also be arranged. Due to our tropical conditions, we recommend not booking international flights on the same day as your departure from Nuqu\u00ed in case weather conditions delay your flight. <\/p>
