Isla Palma Beach Day – A Paradise Escape from Cartagena
If you are looking for that Caribbean corner that looks like a postcard, Isla Palma is your place.
Imagine golden sands and turquoise waters so clear they don't need a filter.
Located in the heart of the San Bernardo Archipelago, it is the perfect destination for travelers who want to discover something quieter and more exclusive than the typical tourist spots, rivaling the beauty of Isla Múcura or Tintipán.
Upon arrival, you decide the rhythm of your day.
Want to vibrate with the music and atmosphere of the active beach area? Or do you prefer to completely disconnect in a serene beach zone?
On Isla Palma, you have both worlds.
You can dive in to explore the reefs with some snorkeling, enjoy a tropical cocktail facing the sea, or simply let the breeze do its thing.
