Tour guide in Santa Marta Oscar C.

Hello, my name is Oscar and I send you a warm greeting from Colombia’s Caribbean coast. I am a young Colombian deeply inspired by nature and by the experiences that connect us to our roots. Over the years, I have gained extensive knowledge of my country through a variety of adventures — from long cycling trips and diving expeditions to living with indigenous communities in the Sierra Nevada. I hold international certifications such as PADI for diving and AIDES for contingency management in wild and hard-to-access areas. I am currently in the process of obtaining my official guide card, and since guiding is my main economic activity, I am fully authorized under local law to practice while the certification is being finalized. I am based in Santa Marta, the city I chose to live in and grow professionally. Here I offer a variety of tours, including snorkeling and other experiences focused on sustainability and meaningful cultural exchange. For me, tourism is a way to highlight Colombia’s true identity — its stunning landscapes and rich cultural diversity — while helping to strengthen local economies and ensure that our communities continue to move forward. I operate year-round, depending on availability, and I look forward to sharing with you the beauty, stories, and hospitality of this unique region. Welcome to Santa Marta!
