Construction: the engine driving Santa Marta's economic growth

The construction sector is today one of the most important engines of the local economy in Santa Marta. New residential and tourism projects have created direct and indirect jobs, while boosting related sectors such as retail and services.

This growth responds to sustained demand for housing —from local residents as well as buyers from other regions of the country and abroad— interested in the quality of life and the appreciation potential the city offers.

Projects such as Calaos Condominio, located in Cabo Tortuga, are part of this new wave of developments that combine design, proximity to the sea and the backing of builders with experience in the region.
