Rosario Islands Day Trip - Rosario del Mar
Looking for a quiet escape from Cartagena’s buzz? A day trip to Rosario del Mar might be just what you need. This peaceful corner of the Rosario Islands is all about white sandy beaches, crystal-clear water, and a relaxed Caribbean vibe that’s hard to beat.
After a scenic speedboat ride, you’ll land in a much less crowded part of the islands—Rosario del Mar. It’s the kind of place where you can stretch out on a sun lounger, swim in warm turquoise waters, or take a nap under the palm trees. And if you're up for a little adventure, snorkeling and exploring the reef are also on the table.
Choose between two options: Arrecife for a classic beach day with a great meal, or Abanico if you want to add 2 hours of open bar to your tropical escape. Either way, you’re in for a day of sun, sea, and total relaxation.
