The canon 60mm macro is very nice and not too expensive, but you will have to get real close to your subject, which could be a problem for insects etc.
Some third party telezooms like the sigma 70-300 APO have a 'macro' setting that let's them focus closer, but it's not true (1:1) macro.
Another option is extension tubes, not very expensive, go between your body and lens, you lose some light and image quality because you're using a smaller part of the image your lens projects. Results depend on the lens used, natch.
If you really want to slum it you can make your own ghetto macro by using lenses backwards, do some googling if you're interested.
