On this activity, you'll feel like true explorers diving between boat remains at the bottom of the Baru peninsula sea. It will be a unique experience!
Description
At the time indicated, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Bocagrande or at the agreed meeting point in Cartagena de Indias. From here, we'll start an hour-long journey by minibus to arrive at the Baru peninsula.
Once at our destination, we'll board a boat and sail the Caribbean Sea to the Los Velázques aquatic park.
If you're a beginner, don't worry. Before the first dive, we'll give you a brief lesson and practice some basic techniques in calm waters. Then, it's time to look for the AC Quindio ship, a boat sunken by the Colombian navy in 2005.
With our equipment on, we'll enter the water to explore the ship's remains. We'll swim inside it and explore its various areas. When the pressure gauge indicates it's time, we'll return to the surface. Overall, each dive will last approximately 30 minutes.
After your dive, you'll have 3 hours of free time to relax. We'll conclude the activity at your hotel Cartagena, where we'll arrive after 9 hours of activity.
During the booking process, you'll be able to choose between different options. Please read below the details of each option:

Divers with certificates
