Wow! Just Wow!
I had never seen blue ocean.
At least not like this.
Cristal clear water, blue ocean in various blue tones.
White sand.
There are not enough words to describe. I just can't understand how I could live without seeing this.
Santa Marta is vibrant beach city, however the best beaches as usual are not here close to town. Actually there's a port in here.
Again here like in all of Colombia streets are numbers instead of names so it's so easy to find things around.
It seems Santa Marta is the oldest city in Colombia as it was founded in 1525.
It really has some very old buildings downtown, specially around the Cathedral.
If you come here please go to what seems to be the best restaurant in town Agave Azul. It has to be mean luck to find it as it's the best food in town. Mexican food with awesome taste.
It's a common hub for people willing to go to Tayrona Park (Other amount of people actually camp in the park as the entrance fee is quite high at 36500 COP for foreigners).
To go to the Tayrona Park you go to Calle 11 with Carrera 11 and take a bus there to the Park entrance (Los Zainos Gate) for 5000 COP. Once there, you pay the entrance fee and get a free map. There's a small bus that takes you from the gate to the star of the path (it's about 5km far away).
Once in the start of the path you'll likely start in the Sendero Arrecifes which takes you to Arrecifes beach. You can also rent a horse :)
The track is amazing in between the trees with that lovely smell of wood. This track is about 3.2km long (about 2 miles) and it takes about 50 minutes to get there. It really does as it's up and down all the way besides a part in the beach fluffy sand.
It pays the walk as the view over there is mind boggling. There are several beaches in this way and you can reach them all by walking. There's not much infrastructure and thank you Colombian government for not allowing cars in this area. Cars simply spoil everything besides the fact that everybody becomes a psychopath while driving a car.
Some of the beaches on the way are Cañaveral, Arrecifes, Piscina, El Cabo San Juan, Boca del Saco and the nudist beach. From all these the Piscina beach is the most impressing since as the name states it's a swimming pool. Calm and warm blue water. There's something about the blue color and the way it makes us calmer and unstressed.
The walk to the last beach is very long, probably around 8km, it can take up to 3 hours, but I assure you'll never get tired. Now what the hell are you waiting for to come to the Caribe?
