Trade the bustling streets of Cartagena for the natural wonders of Baru Island, just a short day trip away. Spend some time on the beautiful Playa Blanca and other quiet beaches if you want to simply relax by the Caribbean Sea—though there’s plenty of other activities to enjoy here. Many tours feature a visit to the National Aviary of Colombia, filled with diverse bird species. You can also snorkel in the clear waters, take a guided boat ride through mangrove channels, or watch the bioluminescent plankton glow after sunset. Itineraries often combine these with stops at the nearby Rosario Islands for a full day of coastal adventure.
