Santa Marta Bay (Spanish: Bahía de Santa Marta) is a bay located in the Caribbean Sea, in northern Magdalena Department of Colombia. Its waters bathe the city of Santa Marta, the country's second port in the Caribbean.[1]
In the vicinity of the bay is the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, which is the highest intertropical mountain in the world by the sea.[1]
