Colombian police say they have seized seven tons of cocaine in the harbour of Cartagena which was destined for the Dutch market.
The haul is the third biggest made over the past 13 years. The drug, which was heading for Rotterdam, was hidden in pineapple pulp, according to media reports.
There were no reports of any arrests.
Earlier this month, Dutch police said Rotterdam is one of the most important centres for the global cocaine trade and between 25% and 50% of western and central European consumption is smuggled through the port city.
