Termales, a fishing village on the Pacific coast of Colombia, seemed a jewel of nature, untouched, remote, stunningly beautiful. And if I hadn't met Nestor that is the impression of Termales that I would still have today. I had travelled to Termales for the annual humpback whale migration, the great beasts finding in the warm protected waters off the coast, the perfect conditions to birth their calves. The waters are filled with life; dolphins, sailfish, whale sharks and yellowfin tuna all make appearances throughout the year.
What a gut-wrenching story. Especially when read from the comfort of a safe sofa, fire crackling in the hearth, a dog’s head resting on my knee, sunlight filtering in through the windows and the magpies yodelling the news in the distance.
