Open Bar Island Day Passes Near Cartagena
Several beach clubs near Cartagena include open bar as part of their standard day pass price — meaning cocktails, beer, and soft drinks are available throughout the day without additional charge. This is particularly popular with groups celebrating birthdays, bachelorette trips, and corporate events where managing individual drink tabs creates unnecessary logistics.
The most affordable open bar day pass near Cartagena is Kabanna Beach Club on Tierra Bomba at $49/person — open bar included as standard, with the venue staying open until 11 PM. The Luxury Beach Club in the Rosario Islands also includes open bar and delivers a higher-end party experience at $129/person. Other venues in this collection offer open bar as an upgrade option on top of a base day pass price — inclusions are listed clearly on each individual product page.
One important note: open bar in the Caribbean sun hits differently than it does at home. Hydrate consistently, eat before the drinks start, and factor in that you still have a speedboat ride back to Cartagena in the afternoon. Our team confirms all logistics including return transfer times when you book.
Open Bar vs A La Carte — Which Works Better?
Open bar packages work best for groups of 6 or more who plan to drink throughout the day and want predictable costs. For couples or smaller groups who drink moderately, a la carte pricing at a higher-quality venue often delivers better value — a few cocktails at Pa'ue or Mangata will typically cost less than the open bar upgrade and come with a better product.
For large group celebrations where the logistics of individual tabs are impractical, open bar is the right choice. Kabanna on Tierra Bomba is the most straightforward option: the lowest price, open bar included, close to the city, and late closing hours for groups who want to extend the day.
If your group wants a private boat as part of the experience, a private speedboat charter to a Tierra Bomba open bar venue is one of the most affordable complete party experiences available from Cartagena. Contact us via WhatsApp to combine both in one booking.
