Uramba Bahía Málaga National Natural Park, Marine national park in Valle del Cauca, Colombia

The protected area spans 471 square kilometers of Pacific coastline, containing mangroves, estuaries, tropical forests, beaches, and marine environments.

The Colombian government established Uramba Bahía Málaga as the country's 56th national natural park in 2010 to preserve coastal and marine ecosystems.

The name Uramba comes from an African term representing collective work, reflecting the traditional practices of local Black communities in marine resource management.

Visitors can reach the park by taking a flight to Buenaventura and then traveling by boat to the Juanchaco pier for park access.

Between June and October, the park's waters host the largest concentration of breeding humpback whales along Colombia's Pacific coast.
