Escape to Islabela, a peaceful eco-style retreat in the Rosario Islands, located about 50 minutes by speedboat from Cartagena. Surrounded by crystal-clear waters and natural landscapes, Islabela offers one of the most relaxed and authentic island experiences near the city.
Unlike party-focused beach clubs, Islabela is designed for travelers seeking calm, nature, and a slower Caribbean rhythm. It’s ideal for couples, solo travelers, and guests who prefer tranquility over loud music and crowds.

Antoni's tip — your Cartagena insider
If you want a quiet island with natural scenery, this is a solid choice.
If you're looking for music, DJs, or party vibes, choose Bora Bora or Kabanna instead.
Meet Your Cartagena Insider
I'm Antoni — and Cartagena isn't just a destination for me, it's home.
I was born in Cartagena and grew up spending my best days on its islands — swimming in crystal-clear waters, eating fresh fish with coconut rice, and discovering every hidden corner of the Rosario Islands, Barú, and Tierra Bomba.
Over the years, working in hospitality helped me understand something important: travelers aren't just looking for a tour — they're looking for a smooth, well-organized, and memorable experience. And in Cartagena… that's not always guaranteed.
I've personally visited every island I recommend. I know the operators, I understand the differences in vibe — from quiet eco escapes to vibrant beach clubs with DJs and energy all day.
Cartagena Day Tours is the result of those conversations — helping you choose the right experience, not just any experience.
