Description

Spend an informative day learning about the local bird species in Colombia before relaxing on the beach. Discover the preservation efforts in place, and then lay on the beach admiring the scenery. Start with pickup from your hotel or accommodation in Cartagena. Sit back and relax in the air-conditioned transport while other travelers are collected. Drive through the beautiful city of Cartagena for approximately 45 minutes until you reach the Barú Peninsula. Drive over the Baru Bridge to cross the Canal del Dique. Until 2014 the only way to cross it was by raft. Learn about the three towns on the island Ararca, Santa Ana, and Barú. Your driver will point out places on the way and bring you to the Rosario and San Bernardo Corals National Natural Park. Visit the National Aviary of Colombia to learn about the biology and behavior of some bird species. You will also discover the importance of the preservation and conservation of Colombian avifauna and nature. Attend the presentation at 11:30 AM where you can enjoy three ecosystem environments and 22 exhibits divided into large immersion aviaries, radial aviaries, estuaries, and lakes. There are different landscapes, vegetation, and aquatic environments, which allow you to appreciate a great diversity of bird species. Then, head to Playa Blanca, famous for its white beaches and turquoise waters. Spend time on a Balinese bed or swim beneath the crystal clear waters. Make use of your lunch voucher of 30,000 pesos to be used on the menu. Avail of the huts, lounge chairs, bathroom, and social areas at no additional cost.
