I Love Providencia, Colombia!
Providencia is actually two islands connected by a colorful footbridge. Santa Catalina was a pirates haven and the cannons still overlook the channel entrance from sea. Today there are no more executions on Pirate Beach, but there's a nice hike and good scenery. One of the reasons I love this island is it's topography - very few Caribbean islands are mountainous and Providencia is one of the most scenic ... right up there with St John in the US Virgin Islands.
