Activity itinerary

La Boquilla

  • 2h
A few minutes from the old city, we will find the stunning mangroves of Cartagena, home to a diversity of fauna, flora and ecosystems unique to our country and the scene of many stories of artisanal fishing... We will start with an explanation about its relevance in our ecosystem, to continue with a stop on the natural island located in the heart of the mangrove, where we will meet some indigenous species, and then we will go into the practice of traditional sustainable fishing of crab and fish, a unique technique of our community to catch family food. We will teach you how to do this and you can join us in this experience. Upon returning, you will enjoy a typical and completely natural refreshing drink, and then we will take you back to your accommodation. NOTE: Our techniques catch you with 100% artisan, sustainable and environmentally friendly.
