Tour Options

During the booking process, you can choose between two options, depending on the time you have available in the city. Both options depart from the Cartagena de Indias Yacht Club and include an English-speaking skipper. Below, we detail the particularities of each one:

Morning Rental (8 Hours)

Ready to board a speedboat and sail to the Rosario Islands?

During the route, we'll pass by iconic places like Bocachica, the Loro Canyon, Fort San Bernardo, Tierra Bomba Island, etc. Best of all, you'll be able to choose the places you want to stop at!

At each of the stops, we'll leave you free time to enjoy this natural paradise. We'll also go on a sightseeing tour to observe the 27 islands that make up the archipelago of the Rosario Islands. Crystal-clear waters and a unique seabed await!

Finally, we'll head back to the starting point, where we'll arrive 8 hours later.

Schedule: this activity takes place at 9 am

Evening Rental (2 Hours)

If you prefer not to miss out on the charms of Cartagena de Indias when the sun's rays begin to tinge the city's sky with orange tones, then you can book a sunset boat rental!

In this case, we'll sail through the bay of Cartagena. We'll pass by outstanding places such as Castillo Grande, the port society, Manga, and we'll enjoy a privileged view of the historic centre.

2 hours later, we'll conclude the activity at the starting point.
