Do you love searching for the deadly blue ring octopus, a fully exposed flat-headed stargazers, the ultimate frizzy “bad hair day” bright-orange hirsute frogfish, a crab fest between an orange and purple decorator crab carrying a live urchin, or perhaps a mimic or red octopus, abundant, colorful soft and hard coral? If so, then you are as a spoiled scuba diver like me. Colombia can’t compete with Indonesia’s underwater diversity, but the country can. And, if you are looking for a quick trip, same day flight, one that is cheaper and faster than going to the Northern Caribbean, Colombia is a great option.
