Hi @silas !!  
Were are you based? I’m from Colombia in the north caribbean part, I live in a small town called Puerto Colombia, 15-20 minutes from Barranquilla (a main city) were you’ll get a good offering of reastaurants and shopping and the regular stuff a city can offer.  
In Puerto Colombia we have our foil heaven, a mellow long wave that when it gets big it never breaks hard so it’s an awesome place for winging and improving. Sand beaches, boardshorts, easy entry.

At Puerto Velero (15-20 minutes from Puerto Colombia) there’s a protected bay were you’ll get a flatwater spot on the inner side, and beach break punchy waves (for intermediate to advanced riders) on the other side.

Also you should look for Salinas del Rey, it’s a very famous kite spot and also a mellow wave with good glides, but full of kiters so I don’t like going there too much, but there are some good hostels around close to the spot with a Brazilian Posadas kind of vibe.

All these spots can be connected downwinding and are in a 25 to 30kms coast full of beaches and good bumps and glides.

Check my insta if you want to see about the conditions around.

Have a great one!
