Ladrilleros is a small beach village on Colombia’s Pacific coast, reached mainly by boat from Buenaventura. The settlement stretches between rainforest and ocean, with long tidal beaches and a slow daily rhythm shaped by fishing, tourism, and the movement of the sea. During low tide, large sections of dark sand open along the coast, connecting different parts of the shoreline on foot.
We settled in Ladrilleros for a week in March 2026 during our stay on the Colombian Pacific coast. We walked the beach when the tide was low and spent time along the village’s single main road, photographing everyday scenes.
