About Our Service in Cartagena, Isla Cholón & Isla Barú

Day 1 begins at 9:00 AM as you depart Marina Rosales aboard the Lagoon 42, welcomed with fresh juice, fruit platters, and breakfast options prepared by your onboard chef. With Cartagena’s skyline slowly receding behind you, the yacht begins a two-hour cruise toward Isla Cholón. This leg of the journey is leisurely by design, allowing you to fully absorb the natural beauty of the Caribbean—mangrove-lined passages, calm blue waves, and the distant outlines of tropical islets.

By 11:00 AM, the catamaran anchors at a more peaceful section of Isla Cholón, deliberately set apart from the island’s popular party crowd. This area offers calm, shallow waters ideal for swimming and paddleboarding, and guests can explore the surrounding mangroves or relax on deck under shaded awnings. Light snacks and tropical drinks are served throughout the morning, with music tailored to your preferred mood—whether tranquil or celebratory.

At 1:00 PM, lunch is served onboard. Your personal chef presents a culinary experience influenced by Colombian coastal traditions: grilled octopus with citrus glaze, coconut rice, fried yucca, and refreshing cocktails. The open-deck layout and surrounding views create the perfect dining ambiance, with a gentle breeze complementing every bite.

By 2:30 PM, you sail onward to Isla Barú, reaching Playa Blanca around 3:30 PM. Known for its white-sand shores and crystal waters, this beach is one of Colombia’s most photographed locations. Spend the afternoon horseback riding along the beach, browsing local artisan markets, or lounging on deck with handcrafted cocktails. Eco-tour activities are available for those interested in learning about the island’s unique biodiversity, and water toys like snorkeling gear or paddleboards can be added to enhance your experience.

As golden hour approaches, the Lagoon 42 becomes your private dining venue once again. At 6:00 PM, your onboard chef and mixologist prepare a multi-course dinner under the stars. Think grilled lobster tail, mango ceviche, and caramelized plantains paired with signature cocktails and Chilean wine. The backdrop? A horizon bathed in sunset hues and the soft sounds of waves lapping gently against the hull.

After dinner, the yacht remains anchored offshore as you retreat to your private en-suite cabin. The Lagoon 42 offers gentle rocking, fresh ocean air, and peaceful surroundings for a night of uninterrupted rest.

Day 2 begins with soft sunlight filtering through the cabin windows. Wake to a hearty breakfast of Colombian coffee, fresh pastries, tropical fruits, and eggs cooked to order. There’s time for a quick morning swim or peaceful meditation on deck before the yacht sets sail back to Marina Rosales. By 10:30 AM, you return to Cartagena, carrying memories of an extraordinary overnight escape that few ever get to experience.
