History
Tayrona Park protects lands historically inhabited by indigenous communities from the Sierra Nevada; the park’s modern boundaries were established to conserve both culture and biodiversity.
Conservation
Visitors should use reef-safe products, pack out trash, and stick to marked paths—Tayrona’s fragile coastal ecosystems are sensitive to trampling and pollution.
