Good day on sailing to Bahia Concha - A good, solid day on the water. We departed on a catamaran around 11:00 and motored about an hour to Bahia Concha. Normally it would have been a monohull but it was undergoing maintenance. There we anchored for 3-4 hours and had lunch. Lunch was included and consisted of one of two dishes.... grilled fish and rice or a ham/cheese wrap. We had the wrap and it was very good and easier to eat with the plate on your lap. Water and soda was provided free of charge throughout the day. Beer was extra. The day consists of time on the beach and experiencing a kayak or paddle board. At 3:00 we returned to the catamaran and sailed most of the way back. Very delightful. The crew was very nice, helpful, and committed to making your day as nice as possible. A good trip.

Awesome expirance - It was a very relaxing tour. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The tour was done on an big catamaran. The beach was nice and clean, lunch was great. The snorkeling is awesome when you know what you are looking for underwater and take your time. The crew was very supportive and caring. They looked out for everyone and helped with all the needs. On the beach there are lots of sales people who are not affiliated with the boat crew, I can't recommend buying a drink from those people, the coco loco I ordered, came in an coconut and it tasted like pure alcohol with sand flavor. On top it was 60,000 COP. But again, those vendors have absolutely nothing to do with the cruise people.

Fun under Tyrona sun - You don’t enter the Tyrona nat park. It is a boat trip to a beautiful beach with a friendly and helpful crew. You can chat with other guests and drink some beers and eat. I had a fun day under the Tyrona sun 🙂 Thanks crew!

Great Experience - We had an absolutely incredible experience sailing to Tayrona with Luis and his team. From start to finish, everything was top-tier. The crew was professional, welcoming, and genuinely made the day feel special. You can tell they take pride in what they do — the level of service was outstanding without ever feeling forced. The boat itself was comfortable and well-maintained, and the views along the coastline were unreal. Tayrona is already beautiful, but experiencing it from the water like this takes it to another level. The food and drinks were also excellent — fresh, well-prepared, and exactly what you want during a day out on the ocean. We also had the chance to relax, swim, and even do some activities, which made the experience feel perfectly balanced between fun and relaxation. Overall, this was one of the highlights of our time in Santa Marta. If you’re considering it, don’t hesitate — this is a must-do experience. Highly recommend Luis and his team. We’ll definitely be back.

Great day trip sailing and beach!! - Fantastic day trip to Bahía Concha! We met the crew at Marina Santa Marta and were immediately impressed — everything was explained clearly in both Spanish and English. The voyage out was enjoyable, with crew members sharing interesting information along the way. We spent about three hours relaxing on the beautiful beach, took advantage of the free kayak, and had a wonderful lunch provided by the tour, along with water and soda. Shade and chairs are available for 70,000 COP if you want extra comfort. Some reviews mention language barriers, but that wasn’t our experience at all — nearly everyone spoke some English and was warm and helpful throughout. Highly recommend!
