The Rosario Islands are a chain of pristine islands off the coast of Colombia in the Caribbean near Cartagena.
Drug Cartel leader Pablo Escobar even had an island retreat in the Rosario Island chain. The water is super warm!
We stopped for lunch on our tour of the Rosario Islands on one of the small islands. Cheers!
The small island we had lunch at even had small infinity pools to cool off. Pablo Escobar's retreat was next to this place too.
I did not enjoy the snorkling in the Rosario Islands as much as other Caribbean places.
Cholon is known as the party island where people drink and party in the waist high water!
Cholon is a fun spot, but one should stay on their guard with all the vendors and large crowds.
Baru has a great beach and lots of local restaurants where people can relax on lounge chairs and listen to local music.
Baru is technically a peninsula, but it was so isolated people on got there by boat until a bridge was built.
A lagoon near Baru has a lot of bioluminiscent plankton which glow in the dark when one stirs up the water.
