D A Y   169 - 176:   T A G A N G A



Date: 14-21may

Taganga is a cute little fisherman's town full of backpackers, diving, partying and delicious food.. We stayed for a couple of days, and used this place as a base for going into the National Parque Tayrona - which we visited during our dive-safari.
Taganga is located at the Caribbean cost of Colombia and it is a  perfect stop for some days in the sun and some beach-time after hard days of sightseeing in the cities, or hiking the Lost City Trek (witch we did not, reason: exhausted after all the hiking in Patagonia)

MUST-DO IN TAGANGA:
Eat: Eat a three course meal at Babaganoush  (25 000p, 80nok) soo good! a steak with blue cheese sauce at Pacha Mama, and an Arequipe con pollo y todos from one of the street stands.
Drink: Party at Mirador or Sensation. There is also Garage, but that was quite dead while we were there.
Where to stay: Casa Filip, around 15-25000p for a bed (30-75nok). Big hostel, full of people. A good place to meet a lot of other backpackers.





















How to get there: 
From Cartagena: 4-5hours bus ride, followed by a 10min taxi ride from Santa Marta. Price: around 10000p(35nok) in total. 
From Palomino: 1,5 hour bus, 8000p (30nok)
