How to find us.
- From Santa Marta. The cheapest way is the public bus from the market, every 15 minutes until 6 pm; it takes over 2 hours. After 6 pm the hostel recommends sleeping in Santa Marta and coming the next day.
- Airports. Santa Marta (SMR) is about 70 km away; a public bus runs from the airport into Santa Marta. Riohacha is about 75 km away, with buses to Palomino from its bus terminal.
- The last stretch. The bus drops you on the main road (Troncal del Caribe). From there, walk or take a motorbike taxi down the road to the beach (Carrera 6): María Mulata is about 100 m from the sea.
- Bring cash. ATMs in Palomino are scarce (ProColombia says there are none) and many places don’t take cards.
