Playa Blanca beach

Playa Blanca is a beach located to the south of Santa Marta, Colombia. It is only possible to get here by boat from Santa Marta. The boat is cheap. But most likely that you'll have to rent a sunbed. Since Playa Blanca is usually overcrowded, while there are no trees ashore. A little further to the north, there is additional wild beach of La Playa Del Amor - without a living soul. You can walk there via the hill. Also in the south, you can fly down by a zipline from Rodadero Aquarium to Playa Blanca. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]
