Review of Santa Marta’s 150-minute sunset sail to Taganga Bay, including two drinks, marina access, timing, comfort, value, and practical tips.
“This experience was not relaxing at all. We expected a smooth, calm sunset sail, but instead it felt like a rollercoaster ride for nearly two hours. The waves were extremely choppy, the guide offered little to no communication, and after sunset they continued going further out into the sea when it was already dark. We genuinely did not feel safe, and our guide didn't even once reassure us even tho we looked unease Unless you’re looking for a rough, adrenaline-style boat ride, I would not recommend this activity.”
