Tarapaca Travel Guide
Colombia
Tarapaca is a small settlement in Colombia, with a population of around 3,100. Its location in the country’s far south gives it a warm, equatorial setting rather than a conventional coastal holiday atmosphere.
Travellers arriving by air use Tarapaca Airport (TCD), the airport serving the settlement. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so beach trips are not a main reason to visit Tarapaca.
