"Isla Baru is one of the closest islands to Cartagena, making it a popular beach destination for a day trip. After a 45-min speedboat trip, you can spend the day on this island sipping cocktails and suntanning on sunbed. The turquoise water, sandy beaches and lively atmosphere make it a great place to escape the city for a relaxing tropical day. It does get quite busy midday so arrive early and be prepared for some crowds. "
