Workation in Santa Marta: the essentials

Founded in 1525, Santa Marta is the oldest surviving city in Colombia and the place where Simón Bolívar died in 1830. It sits on its own bay on the Caribbean with the Sierra Nevada close behind. The restored historic centre holds hostels, bars and restaurants, while El Rodadero is the beach district and Taganga a former fishing village just up the coast. Tayrona National Park and the trek to the Lost City both start nearby, and the cool hills of Minca are a short ride away. Simón Bolívar airport is about 14 km south. The heat is heavy, and water shortages can occur in the dry season.
