Your adventure sets off from the Santa Marta International Marina, where you’ll step aboard a genuine pirate ship for a journey rich in history, excitement, and breathtaking panoramas. As you depart, the stunning Caribbean Sea becomes the backdrop for tales of pirate raids, defensive bastions, and the fascinating beginnings of Colombia’s oldest city.
