COLOMBIA’S WILD COAST – GORGONA, SNAKE PRISON ISLAND
Gorgona, a remote Colombian island, has a dark secret. It’s a natural fortress, surrounded by shark-infested seas, blanketed in impenetrable jungle and teaming with deadly snakes. For a long time it was the site of a high security prison, Colombia’s own Alcatraz. Today, 30 years after the prison was abandoned, the jungle is slowly reclaiming its ruins.
