What things cost in Santa Marta
Prices in Santa Marta spread far wider than any single "from" figure suggests, and 94% of the catalogue can be cancelled free of charge. So the useful question is not what the cheapest ticket costs, but which band buys which kind of day.
That is in line with Colombia as a whole, so price alone should not decide where you spend your days.
