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!

Overview of your Santa Marta tour

This full-day freediving experience takes place in Tayrona National Park, home to one of the most beautiful and healthiest reefs in the Caribbean. Designed for all levels, it offers travelers the chance to begin or deepen their journey into the art of freediving—a practice that, with minimal equipment, allows us to connect with the ocean and with ourselves. Guided by certified instructors, you will learn how to dive safely and enjoyably while exploring the park’s vibrant underwater world. More than a sport, this experience is an invitation to discover a new way of being in the sea, leaving you with lasting skills, unforgettable memories, and a deeper appreciation for the natural spaces we are committed to protecting.
