Playa Blanca

Beach Cartagena, Bolivar, Colombia

What to expect

Playa Blanca, located on the island of Barú, is a stunning beach with turquoise water and golden sand. It's known for its jaw-dropping beauty, but also for its congested crowds and pushy salespeople. The beach is a popular destination for day trips and is considered one of the best beaches in Cartagena. Visitors can enjoy the beach's crystal-clear water, white sand, and various amenities such as restaurants and hotels. The island of Barú also offers other beautiful beaches, including Cholón, Agua Azul, and Agua Tranquila, each with its unique character. Playa Blanca is a great spot for families to relax and enjoy the sun, sand, and sea, but it's recommended to arrive early to avoid crowds
