Want to enjoy the Colombian carribean in a local fisherman’s village? Well then The Alchemist Hostel in Taganga, Colombia is the place for you! Situated in the small fishing village of Taganga, a 20 minute bus ride from Santa Marta, this beautiful and quaint village is the perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of Santa Marta. Buy fresh fish (including salmon at 4 dollars a kilo), take a dip in the crystal blue waters, and go hiking in the desert hills in the surrounding area. The Alchemist is a great base where you can take a nap in a hammock, meet the world’s most interesting travelers, or even watch a little tv to relax. One of the cheapest places in town, don’t mind the signs for other hostels, head straight to el alchemista!
