Urabá Antioquia, Subregion in northwest Antioquia Department, Colombia.

Urabá Antioquia is a subregion in the northwestern part of the Antioquia Department in Colombia. The area extends from the Caribbean Sea to the foothills of the Andes and includes eleven municipalities.

At the end of the 19th century, banana cultivation began here when companies from the United States established plantations. Later, smaller farmers arrived, expanding production and founding new settlements.

The name comes from the Gulf of Urabá, which has been a landing point for travelers for centuries. Today you see wooden houses on stilts in the towns, fishermen with small boats, and markets where fresh plantains and fish are sold.

The main towns lie along paved roads, while remote villages are often reached only by dirt tracks or boats. Visitors who want to explore the area should plan enough time and be prepared for changing weather conditions.

The subregion has two separate zones within the department: a coastal zone by the sea and an inland zone farther south. This division leads to different landscapes and climates within a short distance.
