Cabo de la Aguja, Coastal cape on Caribbean Sea in Magdalena, Colombia
The cape extends into the Caribbean Sea between Santa Marta Bay and the Guajira Peninsula, creating a natural maritime boundary along Colombia's northern coastline.
The cape served as a critical navigation reference point for maritime routes throughout the Caribbean region since the colonial period of South America.
Local fishermen from Magdalena Department maintain traditional fishing practices near the cape, contributing to regional maritime traditions and gastronomy.
Visitors can access the cape through Santa Marta city, which provides transportation services and accommodation options for exploring the coastal area.
The geographical position of the cape creates specific marine currents that attract diverse species of fish and marine mammals to its waters.
