Title: "Santa Marta Harbour, Colombia, Central America: A Glimpse into the Past" Santa Marta Harbour, circa 1910, is a captivating snapshot of the rich maritime history of Colombia, nestled in the heart of Central America. This evocative image transports us back in time, offering a rare glimpse into the bustling activities of the port city's waterfront during the 1910s.

The harbour, teeming with life, is dotted with various boats and ships of all sizes, anchored or undergoing repairs. The intricate details of the boats' wooden structures, rigging, and sails reveal the skill and craftsmanship of the local shipbuilders. The Santa Marta Harbour was a vital hub for trade and transportation in the early 20th century, connecting Colombia to the rest of the world.
