Bay Cruise.

See Cartagena from a new perspective with this scenic one-hour cruise of Cartagena Bay, which is considered one of the most beautiful in the world. Pass all the main coastal sights and attractions of this historic city that lives for the sea. Cap off a wonderful experience by witnessing a sensational sunset. Come aboard and live the Caribbean dream.

Cartagena de las Indias (Cartagena of the Indies) was founded in 1533 by Spanish conquistadors in a sheltered, paradisiacal bay that had been inhabited by the Calamari people. The areas great natural beauty, its strategic location and the many riches that passed through its port made it a magnet for all types of ambitious men looking to make their fortune, including pirates. To protect their asset, the Spanish built a series of imposing – and it turned out, durable – fortifications that still stand to this day.

From the comfort of the boat as you nurse a traditional Caribbean rum and cola, the guide will give you the lowdown on many of landmarks that dot this picturesque coastline. See sights such as the Old Town creeping up from behind the city walls; the impregnable-looking San Felipe de Barajas Castle; the formidable Fort of San Sebastian del Pastelillo and the four-pointed star-shaped Fort of Santa Cruz de Castillogrande, which is right on the top of the sea. Then, after seeing all the top sights and attractions, it’s Mother Nature’s turn to put on a show as the sun sets over Caribbean, drenching the horizon in a kaleidoscope of colours.
