Highlights
  • Fuerte de San Fernando de Bocachica - The imposing San Fernando de Bocachica fortification guards the bay’s entrance. On the morning of March 13, 1741, the citizens of Cartagena were greeted by the sight of an enormous British armada, comprising 120-186 vessels and a force of 20,000 to 27,000 men, which included a minimum of 12,000 foot soldiers. This fleet launched an assault that led to the destruction of the original San Luis Fort, marking the commencement of the Battle for Cartagena de Indias.
  • Isla Tierra Bomba - Following our exploration of the Fort for snapshots and a succinct guided excursion, we’ll amble over to the nearby beach. There, we’ll savor a traditional fish meal and bask in the seaside ambiance.

Next, a brief stroll (strictly less than five minutes) takes us to the Boca Chica Beach Club. Here we’ll recline by the ocean, relishing a quintessential Cartagena lunch - delectable coconut rice, crispy fried fish, a medley of fresh salad, and tantalising patacones. Trust us; the pirate lifestyle conjures quite an appetite! PLEASE EMAIL US IF YOU’D LIKE TO SUBSTITUTE THE FISH BEFORE THE TRIP.

Exceptional! Memorable sunset - Exceptional moment! Warm welcome from the skippers! It’s clear that they make this excursion with the desire to share something magical. Cocktails really very good and unlimited. We spent a memorable evening with my darling, we recommend it with our eyes closed.

Unmissable in Cartagena - Our guide spoke good English and she helped us locate the port to get to the boats (PLEASE NOTE there are two boats of the same type and you will take the smaller one) Otherwise it was a memorable day, I think it’s a must. The captain looks like Will Smith and he's great with the day sailors.

Excellent Family Experience in Cartagena! - Amazing experience for the family. Easy to locate down by the port. Left on time, friendly crew, family oriented, island was calm with an awesome beach, lunch was amazing and filling, and fun facts about Cartagena history was the icing on the cake. We love it so much, we also booked with the same guide for the Sunset tour the next day.

Pirates Life for Me - Such a great experience!! The crew was really hands on and made us feel safe the whole time. Seeing the fortress and getting a tour guide to walk us through the grounds then to the beach was awesome. Be aware that the sun in Cartagena is STRONG. Make sure to wear lots of sunscreen and a hat on the boat/beach. There isnt a lot of shade on the boat so its important to stay protected ☀️
