Tiffany- Colombia - Snorkeling in Cartagena

Playa Blanca
Today was a great day! We wanted to take a boat trip to one of the nearby islands and after some deliberation, we decided on Playa Blanca. After about 35 minutes on a very bumpy speed boat, we made it to Isla del Rosario where we were given the option of touring a local aquarium or going snorkeling in the clear blue water. We opted for snorkeling and it was definitely one of the best snorkeling spots that I have been to.

Our next stop was Playa Blanca. Playa Blanca is a very busy, very beautiful beach. We were served lunch which consisted of fish, rice, salad and plantains. We then spent an hour soaking up the sun while being approached constantly by vendors selling everything from fruits and sandwiches to massages and necklaces. The people on the island were extremely nice and I appreciated the fact that most of the vendors (with the exception of the women offering massage services) were not too persistent.
