Sabai Beach Club — Private Beach Day Pass, Isla Barú
The Beach Near Cartagena You've Been Looking For — No Vendors, No Crowds, No Compromise
Most beaches near Cartagena are beautiful. Most of them also come with vendors, noise, and the constant negotiation that makes it hard to actually relax. Sabai Beach Club is the exception. Set on the southern tip of Isla Barú, Sabai offers 200 meters of completely private, vendor-free Caribbean beach — with an infinity pool, beachfront sun beds, à la carte lunch, kayaks, and paddleboards included. The water is clear, the atmosphere is calm, and the service is genuinely good.
The experience starts at Todomar Marina in Bocagrande with a fully shaded 55-minute speedboat ride past the historic San Fernando Fortress at Bocachica and the Cholón lagoon — a scenic panoramic route before you arrive at one of the most exclusive beach club settings near Cartagena.
