From Cartagena: Day Trip to Playa Blanca with Lunch

Enjoy a paradisiacal day relaxing on the white sand beach of Baru Island's aptly-named Playa Blanca. After getting picked up from your hotel in Cartagena, take a 1-hour journey in a comfortable air-conditioned minivan to Baru. Learn more about local life in both the city and the island towns from your local driver.

Once in Baru, take a quick, idyllic stroll along the beach to reach the eco-hostel where you will spend the day. Make the most of all the facilities the hostel has to offer, including sundecks to relax on the beach, hammocks, or snorkel equipment if you wish to take a dip in the beach's crystal-clear waters. 

In the afternoon, savor a delicious lunch with several options including vegetarian and meat dishes washed down with local juices. Head back to the beach after lunch to relax for another few hours before beginning the journey back to Cartagena in the evening.
