Top Nature in Bolivar

Watch out for beach vendors! They can be a bit insistent. I think it's best to politely say 'no gracias' and keep walking if you're not interested. It’ll save you some time for enjoying the sand.

Bring your own snacks and drinks. I thought I could buy everything there, but some items were surprisingly overpriced. A cooler with drinks and some local treats goes a long way.

For sun loungers and umbrellas, negotiate the price beforehand. I got charged way more than I should've when I didn't ask! A good rule of thumb is to pay around 15,000 COP for a full day.

I recommend hitting the beach early, like around 8 am, to snag a good spot before it gets crowded. Plus, the sunrise views are stunning!

I suggest taking a water taxi from Cartagena to Playa Blanca instead of the road. It's more fun and you avoid the traffic. Plus, the views from the boat are gorgeous!

If you're into photography, bring a zoom lens! The birds are often a bit far away, and a good lens will help you capture them beautifully
