Overview

This boat tour in Cartagena takes place in the early evening as the sun sets over the bay. The trip lasts between one and two hours aboard a pirate-themed ship. Guests can borrow pirate costumes for photos on board. The crew fires a cannon during the cruise, adding to the pirate atmosphere. Drinks included are alcoholic beverages such as Pirates’ Punch and Pirates’ Coconut Lemonade, which come with or without rum. A souvenir cup is provided, and the boat has restroom facilities. As the boat sails through Cartagena Bay, passengers see the skyline of Bocagrande, as well as the neighborhoods of Laguito and Castillo Grande. The tour passes by historic sites including the Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas, a fortress built in 1639 on the Hill of San Lázaro. It also sails by the Fort of San Sebastian del Pastelillo on Manga Island, known for its 31 guns and camouflage design. During the cruise, the marble statue of the Virgen del Carmen, a 15-meter high sculpture that returned to the bay in 2017, is visible. The route also includes views of Plaza Bocagrande Centro Comercial and the remains of the Castillo Grande fortress, with its history dating back to the early 1600s and reconstruction attempts through the 1700s. The tour provides a combination of coastal views, historic landmarks, and onboard entertainment, all set against Cartagena’s bay at sunset. The city dock fee is not included in the price.

Itinerary

1

Castillo de San Felipe de Barajas

A fortress in Cartagena built in 1639, located on the Hill of San Lázaro.

2

Fuerte de San Sebastian del Pastelillo

Located on Manga Island, this fort has 31 guns and uses ground camouflage. It replaced the Fort of Boquerón destroyed in 1741 and helped control maritime traffic in the bay.

3

Virgen del Carmen Statue

This 15-meter high marble sculpture weighing about 20 tons returned to Cartagena Bay on June 6, 2017, resuming a tradition of more than 30 years that was interrupted after the statue collapsed in August 2015. The statue's pieces, made of Italian white marble, fell to the seabed during heavy rain and were recovered in an operation coordinated with the National Navy. The original image was inaugurated on July 16, 1958, following a 1946 proposal to erect a large Virgin of the Sea statue in the bay. The inauguration featured a procession led by Archbishop José Ignacio López, starting at the Cathedral and ending at the walls along Arsenal Avenue.

4

Plaza Bocagrande Centro Comercial

The tour passes by the modern commercial area of Bocagrande, offering views of its skyline.

Castillo Grande Fortress

Built between 1626 and 1636 with a square base and bulwarks, it was partially destroyed during attacks in the 1600s and 1700s. The fortress remains are now part of the National Navy Officers’ Club.
