Description

Discover the authentic side of Cartagena with a half-day fishing and cultural experience in La Boquilla, a peaceful fishing village surrounded by rich wetlands and mangroves. Your private bilingual guide will pick you up directly from your hotel and take you to La Boquilla, where the adventure begins. Hop into a traditional canoe and paddle alongside local fishermen through the calm waters of the nearby cienagas. As you glide through the stunning landscape, learn about the area's diverse ecosystem and its importance to the local way of life. The fishermen will teach you three distinct fishing techniques still used today: hand line fishing, casting nets, and setting fish traps. Try each one yourself while hearing fascinating stories and insights from your local hosts. Once you've caught your fish, relax on the beach with a fresh coconut drink before heading to a local cooking spot. There, local cooks will guide you in preparing your catch using time-honored recipes, giving you a true taste of Cartagena's coastal cuisine. This immersive experience offers more than just fishing – it’s a chance to connect with local traditions, taste authentic food, and see Cartagena from a new perspective.
