How do I get to Olimpica?

Arrive, exchange some cash for Colombian peso, and charter a small plane right into Nuqui. The kite beach is west of the airport and there are probably 3 or 4 cabs in the whole town. But the nice hotel is a 15min walk to from the airport and the locals will carry your bags for a tip (1 dollar).
