About Our Service in Cartagena, Playa Manzanillo & Tierra Bomba

Day 1 begins at 8:00 AM as you board our luxury Lagoon 42 catamaran at Marina Rosales. After a brief safety orientation and refreshments on deck, you’ll begin a scenic two-hour sail northward along Cartagena’s coastal waters. The cruise offers a peaceful start to the day, passing rugged shorelines, open sea vistas, and mangrove-lined channels that speak to the untouched charm of Colombia’s northern coast.

At 10:00 AM, the catamaran anchors near Playa Manzanillo—a secluded and breathtaking beach known for its clear waters, golden sands, and tranquil environment. Whether you're lounging under the shade of tropical palms or snorkeling just offshore, the morning offers a perfect balance of relaxation and immersion. The snorkeling grounds here are vibrant with life, with reef structures that attract schools of colorful fish, starfish, and even rays gliding in the distance.

By 12:00 PM, a gourmet seafood lunch is served onboard. Featuring dishes like grilled red snapper, coconut rice, avocado salad, and fried plantains, the menu celebrates the region’s culinary richness. A chilled glass of wine or fresh tropical juice rounds off the meal, best enjoyed from the yacht’s shaded cockpit while soaking in the expansive views of sea and sky.

At 1:00 PM, the catamaran sets sail toward Tierra Bomba Island, arriving by 2:00 PM. This part of the itinerary is perfect for land-based adventure. Enjoy light hiking along nature trails, explore quiet beachfronts, or opt for paddleboarding along the island’s crystalline coastline. The island offers a rustic charm and natural beauty often overlooked by mainstream routes, giving you an authentic slice of Caribbean life.

The yacht departs Tierra Bomba at 4:00 PM, beginning a scenic two-hour return journey to Marina Rosales. As the sun begins its descent, you can recline on the foredeck nets or take in the glow of Cartagena’s skyline from the water. Arriving at 6:00 PM, you’ll disembark carrying the stories of secluded shores, flavorful cuisine, and unhurried adventure—an 8-hour journey that feels like a week’s worth of memories.
