Step-by-step itinerary

Sunset catamaran cruise in Cartagena

• Board catamaran at tourist pier
• Cruise Cartagena Bay with open bar
• Admire Walled City and Bocagrande skyline
• Return to departure pier

The Experience

The catamaran departs from Cartagena's main tourist pier and heads into Cartagena Bay as the light starts to shift. You have an open bar throughout—beer, soft drinks, water, Cuba Libre, tropical cocktails—and complimentary snacks while live crossover music plays on deck. The whole point is to float and watch: the historic Walled City and the modern Bocagrande skyline both show differently as the sun moves, and the water reflects it all back.

Two hours is the full time on the water. Families and friends mix on the shared boat; children are welcome, though infants sit on an adult's lap. Restroom facilities are onboard. The pace is unhurried—you're not going anywhere fast, just drifting and drinking and listening to the music until the sun is gone and the city lights take over. Then you head back to the pier.
