Originally a small fishing village, Taganga has grown into a destination for travelers who want to relax, dive, or are on their way to Tayrona National Park a little further east.
When I drove towards Taganga in the late evening, after having just arrived from Bogotá, I immediately felt the difference. The climate, obviously: balmy weather, a breeze, humidity - a pleasant change after the chilly nights of the highlands. But also the atmosphere where it came to people: it had a Caribbean feel about it. Relaxed and laid back, when time does not seem to be much of a factor anymore. People lazing away time on their doorstep, chatting to each other, or under a tree, on the beach.
