This final home of Simon Bolivar contains a museum housing works of art from countries he helped liberate.

This landmark where Simon Bolivar spent his final days is a reminder that Santa Marta has so much more to offer than just beautiful beaches and good sea food. The "libertador" of South America is a figure well worth learning about and no better place than this. You can see the original structures of Bolivar's hacienda, as well as the monuments that have been raised in his honor. I also highly recommend using one of the young local guides who provide a 40-minute informative tour and are eager to answer visitors' questions. They are paid in tips only and do a great job. We spent about an hour here and it's only about 15 minutes from the historic center or Rodadero beach. Don't miss it!

Very nice and pleasant stay at Crystal beach. The water is super clean and you can see many yellow fishes very close to the sand. There are available chairs/umbrella to rent and a small restaurant.

The building which functioned in the Spanish colonial era as the Customs House (Casa de la Aduana) for the port of Santa Marta is today a museum that lets you explore stories of the past and present from this corner of Colombia's magic Caribbean region.

Took the bus to "Don Diego" from near our resort, Ecohabs Los Naranjos, (bus: ~15 minutes, stop neat to a fruit stand, towards Palomino, $3,000 but they charged us $4,000 for being gringos I think). The tubing company is right where the bus drops you off. We got William, he was perfecto. $60,000 per person and they keep your bags for you. You can also buy a waterproof case for your phone, they'll show you where. Bring water and sunscreen. A few of us got burnt and didn't have sunscreen until we got back to our bags. Bring a few pesos for the end, there's drinks and snacks to buy. Roughly 45 minute cruise, very slow, saw a crocodile (very safe distance), lots of monkeys, beautiful birds and jumping fish at the end. Totally worth it. We bought some fruit on our way back to the bus, probably not the cheapest fruit but super amazing. Try not to fall asleep too hard on your bus ride back!

It is located in Tairona Park. To go there you see the sea of the 7 waves, you can stay here or go to Cristal Beach. Very attractive place because of the mountains close to it.
