Playa El Rodadero santa marta
Beach

The good thing of this beach is the fact there are few vendors , very few so you can easily...

Pozos Colorados Beach
Tourist attraction
👍 Great beach with shallow and warm water that makes it a great place for families. There are many services available there, but it is frequently overcrowded. Another negative are the sometimes rude and overly insistent vendors that can literally form a queue to show you their wares.
