While staying a few days in Barranquilla, I plan to head out of town to nature for a few days and would like to leave some luggage in town. I am also not leaving via the airport, so I would prefer a location in the city somewhere.

Where can I safely leave a single suitcase or backpack for a few days in the town of Barranquilla, Colombia?

    I wont post this as an answer because I'm not 100% sure, but luggage storage is not common in Colombia. I'm Colombian so I've never had the need for one, but I've never seen one either.

    Couldn't find any, there was a storage location in Cartagena bus terminal but not in Barranquilla. That doesn't mean there isn't any, just not where I looked.

    @pnuts - Unfortunately no. I realize its hard to prove there isn't but it certainly is not at any of the two bus terminals I used. Didn't check the airport though as it was not on my path.

    @pnuts - Ended up carrying all my stuff and getting a better workout than expected ;) The hotel probably could have stored the luggage but there was so many people coming in and out, as it was carnaval, staff changes, that I didn't want to risk it.

    fedorqui unfortunately no. I'm not from that region and my only source at this point would be internet and @markmayo could do it himself. As I said before I don't think there is one storage easy to find but I like your idea about a hotel. Mark if during your research you find a site in spanish that you don't fully understand send me a link at diego.galeano at gmail and I'll try to help.

Neither the Barranquilla bus terminal or the airport have any luggage storage facilities (or at least none are listed on their websites), so your best bet is to book a hotel room for a few days and drop off your things there. Booking.com lists a few acceptable options for as little as 20 EUR per day, which is possibly acceptable for many travelers.
