Guidebook for Cartagena
Parks & Nature
Beautiful place to see birds.
You can go by land in shuttles that go everyday to playa blanca from 8 until 11 a.m. If not you can hire a private car. I can help you booking this, just let me know.

Nice beach to spend the day. Also I know a place there to have nice lunch. The place is called Celmira and when you get there (by boat you walk towards the left, by land towards the right) you walk 15 min and you'll find some big pink tents, thats it! Always fresh fish and seafood.
