In Colombia, the plains and coastal lowlands are characterized by diverse ecosystems, including tropical rainforests and savannas. The Llanos, a vast tropical grassland region, is primarily found in the eastern part of the country and is crucial for agriculture and cattle ranching. The coastal lowlands along the Caribbean and Pacific coasts feature rich biodiversity and are vital for fishing and tourism. These regions are also influenced by unique climatic conditions, contributing to their ecological significance.

The climate of the plains and coastal lowlands in Colombia is primarily tropical, characterized by high temperatures and humidity year-round. The region experiences distinct wet and dry seasons, with significant rainfall during the wet season, especially along the coasts. Average temperatures typically range from 24°C to 30°C (75°F to 86°F), influenced by altitude and proximity to bodies of water. The diverse ecosystems in these areas support rich biodiversity, including tropical rainforests and savannas.
They are the Atlantic Coastal Plains and Gulf Coastal Plains. The Atlantic Plains runs close to the Atlantic Coast and the Gulf Plains runs near the Gulf of Mexico.

Another name for coastal plains are lowlands or littoral plains. These are flat, low-lying areas adjacent to coastlines that are formed by the deposition of sediment carried by rivers or the sea. Coastal plains are often fertile and support diverse ecosystems.
