This research article refers to the coastal region around Santa Marta (Colombia), showing a valuable geodiversity from a coastal geomorphology point of view, with great scientific importance for the study of coastal landscapes and attractive for the development of geotourism. The landscape value of the coastal regions of the Colombian Caribbean, in particular of the coastal region around Santa Marta, should be globally recognized to improve and protect its aesthetic and environmental value through geoeducation and geotourism activities that contribute to its geoconservation, motivating efficient management that outlines guidelines that promote the development of appropriate tourist infrastructure, centers of scientific interpretation, dissemination and educational materials, active exchange with geoparks, continuous improvement, and participation of local communities.
El presente artículo de investigación hace referencia a la región costera alrededor de Santa Marta (Colombia), la cual muestra una geodiversidad valiosa desde el punto de vista de la geomorfología costera, de gran importancia científica para el estudio de los paisajes costeros y atractiva para el desarrollo del geoturismo. El valor paisajístico de las regiones costeras del Caribe colombiano, en particular de la región costera alrededor de Santa Marta, debe ser reconocido mundialmente para mejorar y proteger su valor estético y ambiental a través de actividades de geoeducación y geoturismo que contribuyan a su geoconservación. Ello puede motivar una gestión eficiente que describa lineamientos que promuevan el desarrollo de infraestructura turística adecuada, centros de interpretación científica, difusión y materiales educativos, intercambio activo con geoparques, mejora continua y participación de las comunidades locales.
Este artigo de pesquisa refere-se à região costeira ao redor de Santa Marta (Colômbia), que mostra uma geodiversidade valiosa do ponto de vista da geomorfologia costeira, de grande importância científica para o estudo de paisagens costeiras e atraente para o desenvolvimento do geoturismo. O valor paisagístico das regiões costeiras do Caribe colombiano, particularmente a região costeira ao redor de Santa Marta, deve ser reconhecido mundialmente para melhorar e proteger seu valor estético e ambiental através de atividades de geoeducação e geoturismo que contribuam para sua geoconservação. Isso pode motivar uma gestão eficiente que descreve diretrizes que promovem o desenvolvimento de infraestrutura turística adequada, centros de interpretação científica, materiais educacionais e de divulgação, intercâmbio ativo com geoparques, melhoria contínua e participação das comunidades locais.
