The Salamanca Island Road Park (Spanish: Vía Parque Isla de Salamanca) is a national park located in the Caribbean Region of Colombia, on the western outskirts of the city of Ciénaga in the Magdalena Department.
The flora and fauna is in abundance because of the confluence of sweet water flowing from the Magdalena River and saline water of the Caribbean Sea.
It was created in 1964[1] to protect the abundant bird life and coastal mangroves.
[2] Vía Parque is included in the Spanish name (English: Park Road) because of the road that runs through it, connecting Santa Marta with Barranquilla.
The existence of 33 species of mammals indicates a maintained high diversity, despite the environmental problems affecting the ecosystem.
