- Cartagena District - 1. The journey begins with a pick-up from your hotel, hostel, or accommodation between 6:00 am and 7:30 am in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle. Other travelers will also be picked up, so please be patient as traffic can sometimes cause delays. Enjoy a scenic 45-minute tour through the stunning city of Cartagena on the way to the Barú Peninsula.
- We will cross the Baru Bridge without stopping, where you will see the Corales del Rosario and San Bernardo National Natural Park. The Barú Peninsula, also known as Isla de Barú or simply Barú, is separated from the mainland by the Canal del Dique. Until 2014, the only way to cross was by raft or similar means, until the “Baru Bridge” was inaugurated. Barú is an artificial island created nearly 100 years ago by the construction of the Canal del Dique. The island is home to the towns of Ararca, Santa Ana, and Barú.
- Playa Tranquila Baru - 2. Arrive at Playa Blanca, renowned for its white sands and turquoise waters, and the only public beach. Once in Barú, a short 5-minute walk will take you to the Beach Club, where you can relax on a sun lounger or chair and explore the stunning crystal-clear waters. Lunch is provided with a voucher worth 30,000 for menu items. Enjoy the use of huts, lounge chairs, bathrooms, and social areas at no extra cost.
- Visit the Mangrove Swamp. You will be taken by a native boat to the mangrove swamps, where you can observe various animals and learn about the vital role mangroves play in our ecosystem. Engage in snorkeling to see different fish species and their habitats. At the end, you will have the opportunity to feed and interact with them.
- Isla Baru - On the white beach, as night falls, you will be accompanied by native islanders on a boat to witness the mesmerizing plankton. These organisms float and drift in fresh or saltwater, producing a brilliant light when agitated, resembling stars or diamonds. Plankton plays a crucial role in capturing CO2 from the atmosphere and transferring it to deeper ocean waters or the seabed. They are also responsible for producing over half of the oxygen on our planet and are at the base of the food chain.
