This is the main reason why Taganga matters. Up until the seventies, this fishermen's town was a comunal paradise. There were not individual titles for the properties, food was abundant, and life was dictated by local traditions and values, an identity forged from the indigenous ancestors, and the people that arrived since then. This is a comunal museum intended to preserve and celebrate the identity of Taganga. Fishermen here knitted their nets using a very particular technique, as are the games they play while they fish. It's possible to walk to the bays, or Ancones, where they still go fishing, and buy the fish straight out of the net, and eat it, the Taganga way. We recommend this, it's quite an experience.
