Rosario Islands Day Trip
Let Cartagena's brilliant Caribbean archipelago be your world class oyster with a day trip to a laid-back, family-orientated beach resort that will more than live up to your Caribbean fantasies of platinum sands and crystalline waters.
Get ready for a day in paradise on Isla Grande, the largest of the Caribbean islands in Colombia's Rosario Islands National Park.
Spend the morning chilling on your own beach lounger, swimming in turquoise waters, reading and topping up the tan.
The only thing that will break your beach stride is the traditional fish platter at lunch time. Kick back after lunch for a siesta before heading back to town with your battery bank fully re-charged.
Beach Bliss.
Brought to you by one of the first real beach clubs to be built on Isla Grande, the largest of 30 islands stretching to the south of Cartagena, this delicious day trip to the Rosario Islands is a must for visitors in town for the weekend.
For visitors with a bit more time on their hands it's easy to organise an overnight stay at some of our favourite private island retreats.
The archipelago can be found less than an hour by boat from the historic center of Cartagena. The Rosario Islands National Park, is the most popular of Colombia's national parks with more than 400,000 visitors a year taking in the aquamarine waters and laid-back vibe.
A magnificent compliment to the cultural and culinary activities of Cartagena, the Rosario Islands are a perfect place to relax, catch up on some reading or simply switch off for the day.
For beach bums that struggle to keep still there are a host of watersports options, including stand-up paddle board, kayaks and diving to keep you busy.
If you're looking to bounce around and visit more than one island then rent a boat for the day and max out on the chance to see more of this stunning corner of Colombia's Caribbean coast. -
