What to expect

Rosario Islands and panoramic boat route

This experience takes you from Cartagena across the Caribbean Sea, following a panoramic boat route around the Rosario Islands before reaching the ecohotel.

Features

• The round-trip maritime transport from Cartagena allows you to travel to and from the Rosario Islands by boat without arranging separate transfers.
• As you follow the panoramic boat route around the Rosario Islands, you can look out over the Caribbean waters and the island coastline while you cruise between Cartagena and the ecohotel.
• Departure from La Bodeguita Pier gives you a clear starting point in the city and a defined location for both boarding and returning at the end of the day.

Ecohotel with private beach

At the Rosario Islands, you spend time at an ecohotel with a private beach, where you can relax on the shore or join in the planned water activities.

Features

• Lunch is included during your time at the ecohotel, so you can eat on site without leaving the property or arranging food separately.

Hookah Diving experience

Hookah Diving is a shallow-water diving system that keeps the air supply at the surface while you explore the underwater world of the Rosario Islands.

Features

• The Hookah Diving experience with equipment and instructors lets you explore the fascinating underwater environment without carrying a traditional scuba tank on your back.
• Instructors provide and manage the Hookah Diving equipment, so you can focus on breathing comfortably and observing marine life around the Rosario Islands.
• Assistance insurance is included for this activity and the day in general, adding an extra layer of support while you participate in Hookah Diving and spend time in the water.

Snorkeling and paddleboarding session

Beyond Hookah Diving, you also have a chance to explore the surface of the Caribbean Sea around the Rosario Islands during a combined snorkeling and paddleboarding session.

Features

• The snorkeling and paddleboarding session gives you time in the clear Caribbean waters of the Rosario Islands, where you can float above marine life or move across the surface on a board.
• Equipment for snorkeling and paddleboarding is made available as part of the experience format, so you can move between these two water sports during your session at the ecohotel.
• These surface activities complement Hookah Diving by letting you see the Rosario Islands coastline from different angles, from underwater views while snorkeling to standing views on a paddleboard.
