Where to eat before Santa Marta airport
Before a flight, the best meal is not always the most famous one; it is the one that does not risk a late arrival. If your timing is tight, eat near the airport or near your departure base. If you have buffer time, you can do a fuller stop, but keep traffic and check-in margins.
When timing is tight, simple breakfast or quick meals usually perform better than long sit-down stops.
