Most Popular★ 4.5

Sail to Tayrona Park from Santa Marta on a comfortable sailboat, with Bahia Concha beach time, snorkel gear, and lunch.

“Our sailboat tour to Tayrona Park was an unforgettable experience! The ride going there can feel a bit scary because of the big and rough waves, but we arrived safe and sound. The tour guide was very reassuring and explained that it’s completely normal and safe, which really helped us relax. Tayrona Park itself is…”

A full-day guided hike in Tayrona National Park from Santa Marta, ending at Cabo San Juan for a long swim and big viewpoint views.

“O local em si é incrível, visitar o parque Tayrona definitivamente é uma obrigação para todos que vierem a Santa Marta. Praias sensacionais, uma biodiversidade única e, apesar de um pouco desafiador, uma ótima trilha ecológica. Entretanto, o serviço em si não foi dos melhores. O ônibus era muito pequeno e estava com todos os…”

★ 4.3

Classic sunset sail from Santa Marta to Taganga Bay with 2 included drinks, great deck photos, and a simple, scenic 2.5-hour outing.

“This experience was not relaxing at all. We expected a smooth, calm sunset sail, but instead it felt like a rollercoaster ride for nearly two hours. The waves were extremely choppy, the guide offered little to no communication, and after sunset they continued going further out into the sea when it was already dark. We…”
