    Very well marked until the last turn, take a right after markers to rock entrance. Customs and doctor very nice just takes time. Plan on 1-2 hours. Bring lots of $5 and $10 for donations. Dockage is very affordable. Just realize you are in n tourist area, need to go to Santa Marta for affordable food.

    Bring toothpaste, soap lotions etc to help people. My wife did bags of school supplies for kids.

    Just know people here need help with basic items. They are very nice and good people. Lack of tourists since covid is strangling the working people.
