Just a few miles west of Cartagena sits the stunning Isla Barú. This island is one of the best day trips from Cartagena, with stunning mangrove forests, incredible beaches, and plenty of things to keep you busy. It’s home to everything from backpacker hostels to luxury hotels and should be a mandatory stop on every traveler’s itinerary. Isla Barú is probably best known as being home to Playa Blanca, which many consider to be among Colombia’s best beaches – it’s a stunner, though busy. However, even if you aren’t looking to hit this beach, don’t count out a visit to the Island. Consider staying at one of the lovely private hotels around the island, home to their own beachfront which provides visitors with plenty of privacy
