Description

Experience one of the best Rosario Islands tours from Cartagena with this carefully curated, full-day island-hopping excursion. Designed for travelers seeking both adventure and relaxation, this tour includes access to select private islands, complimentary beach beds, snorkeling sessions, and safe island exploration. The tour runs from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, departing from the main pier in Cartagena. It begins with a brief sightseeing stop at Bocachica Fort on Tierra Bomba Island, followed by a pass by Pablo Escobar’s former estate for a photo opportunity. The adventure continues with a snorkeling session near Marina Island, where you'll explore a marine lagoon with tropical fishes. After snorkeling, enjoy two leisurely island visits to Isla Marina and Isla Grande, where you can unwind on beach beds and have lunch. The final stop offers two options: visit the Oceanarium (entry fee of 40,000 COP not included) for a family-friendly experience, or choose Coralina Island as a complimentary alternative for continued relaxation. Please note that boat rides can be bumpy and may not be suitable for infants, elderly passengers, pregnant travelers, or those with injuries or mobility issues. A mandatory port tax of 29,000 COP (cash only) must be paid in person upon arrival at the pier. Swimwear is required, and the tour itinerary may be adjusted due to weather conditions for your safety. Transportation to the meeting point is not included, so please arrive on time and prepare for the possibility of rain.
