Cabo Tortuga beach

Cabo Tortuga is a beach located to the south of Santa Marta, Colombia. It is almost as beautiful as El Rodadero, but less crowded. However, there are still a lot of tourists. Since there are many condominiums with high-rise buildings along the coastline. However, most all condos are luxury. So many guests are chlling near the pool - instead of visiting the beach. If your hotel is not a beachfront, it is worth to walk along the coast to the left and to the right - to find the most beautiful beach area. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
