In the south you'll find Playa Blanca (White Beach) with it's warm sand and crystal clear water. For those willing to spend a little more pesos on accommodation the Marriot Santa Marta has one of the best views in the area.

In the center of town you can take a leisurely stroll around the central park, Parque de los Novios and sightsee the Historic District. Foodies rejoice as Santa Marta has a great variety of culinary experiences from steakhouses to vegan restaurants. From cheap hostels to oceanview resorts, Santa Marta offers places to stay for all budgets.  

A short and scenic ride to the north and you'll find Taganga, a fishing town that's very cheap and very relaxed. Taganga is great place to unwind during the the weekend after a long week in class.
