Description:

Minca is a small town close to Santa Marta and Taganga, but more inland and up the mountain at 600m altitude. It's a great place to get a feeling for the countryside and get away from the beaches.

Don't miss El sendero poso azul, a nice place to go and have a swim or jump in to the river from the rocks, about 20 minutes walk from the road. After having a swim in the river you can go and have a nice feed in one of the cool restaurants by the river (try the free range chicken soup).

To get there, take a pickup truck that leaves regularly from Santa Marta's market (45 minutes), or just arrange for a taxi to take you.
