The Islands

It's not a trip to Cartagena without them.

Baru. The Rosario Islands. Tierra Bomba. 

The best way to survive the heat of Cartagena's sultry days is to hit the beach. And if you follow the locals, they're not hanging around the beaches in town. 

 

From the glorious turquoise waters and white sands of the Rosario Archipelago, to the vibrant communities of Baru and Tierra Bomba, a day (or perhaps a night or two) spent in the islands is a vacation from a holiday.

 

Don't miss it.
