Experience Santa Marta with the Tribe
Take on Santa Marta with the Tribe and discover a new side to Colombia. Open your mind to the cocreated community experiences, adventures, and classic WiFi Tribe moments that'll make our time here one of a kind.
1. Explore Parque Tayrona
Go an easy 4-hour hike through the jungle, and emerge on pristine white sandy beaches with no crowds around. "One of the most stunning beaches I’ve ever seen."
2. Sail from beach to beach in Tayrona
"An alternative way (more fabulous way) to get to the stunning beaches of Tayrona - go sailing, play tunes, and have a little boat party"
3. Organize a tubing trip in Palomino
"Imagine, tubing down a river while monkeys swing by on the trees until you reach the Caribbean ocean - it's been an unforgettable experience"
4. Discover La Ciudad Perdida in the jungle
"It's like a mini Machu Picchu, but without all the tourists". Go on a multi-day trek to find La Ciudad Perdida (The Lost City) and be wowed by the views.
5. Soak in the magic of Minca
We've stayed the weekend at a Minca hotel with crazy views. "We were up on a mountain overlooking the ocean and valley covered in trees, as flocks of parrots fly by while the sun is setting." Just magical.
6. Dive into underwater worlds
Santa Marta is one of the most affordable places in the world to get your Scuba certification. Why not learn to dive in the clear, warm Caribbean waters alongside fellow Tribers?

Highlights
We're staying right in the historical centre of Santa Marta. While we are just a 5 min walk from the well known Parque de Los Novios, the hub all restaurants and bars, our street is quiet, residential and perfect for day to day work!
We are very lucky and going to stay with everyone under the same roof and got access to a nice outdoor patio with a pool with sun loungers to relax, a comfy communal living room with couches, a dining room and a fully equipped kitchen.
All rooms are ensuite and have a desk and a chair.
Good to Know
While we will be upgrading the internet and also getting an ISP backup, it is important to note that all local providers use the same wiring so if there's a storm the entire region is affected by it. Good news is, that 5G works no matter what. Just prepared that it might happen that the internet goes down due to weather conditions.
This chapter is all about the weekend adventures and the amazing experiences you have with the group. If you are into jungle vibes, hiking, rafting, staying in stunning remote locations, this is a chapter you really going to enjoy.
