Cartagena de Indias: living history in front of the Caribbean Sea
If there is a city in Colombia that manages to unite the richness of the past with the natural charm of the Caribbean, it is Cartagena de Indias. Its historic walled center, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, is just the beginning of an experience that has the sea as one of its most irresistible protagonists.
Because Cartagena is not only culture and history: it is also beach, sun and warm waters all year round.
Urban beaches: Caribbean sun with a city flavor
For those who want to enjoy the sea without leaving the city, Cartagena offers the beaches of Bocagrande and Castillogrande, while in La Boquilla, quieter and more authentic, the sea is mixed with the legacy of Afro-descendant communities and a gastronomy worth discovering.
These beaches are minutes from the historic center and allow you to combine relaxation by the sea with the urban and cultural life of the city.
Baru: white sand, turquoise sea and absolute disconnection
Just an hour by boat or car from Cartagena, the Baru Peninsula is a paradise for those seeking tranquility, natural beauty and a crystal clear sea that invites you to swim, float or simply contemplate.
Cartagena, for sea lovers and more
Cartagena is a destination that has it all: culture, history, gastronomy, and above all, beaches that adapt to every type of traveler. From those looking to relax as a couple, to groups of friends, families with children or those who dream of a wedding in front of the sea. And all this, in a warm climate during the 12 months of the year. Because in Cartagena, it’s always summer.
