Cartegena is a city that seems to have it all!

Crazy sailing...35 knots wind today from San José to Carthagena!


This beautiful port city, located in the Murica region, is lucky enough to be bordered  by several coastal mountain ranges which means, no matter where you stand in this awesome city you are blessed with the most wonderful backdrop of sea and mountains, fantastic! 


With no goal of what to do and see, we simply stroll Cartagena’s lovely streets until a building or site attracts our attention.


It’s an easy walk from the port to Cartagena’s marbled avenues.


A Cartagena walking tour is filled with stunning architecture and history! 
Colorful art deco buildings line Cartagena’s marbled avenues filled with shops, cafés and restaurants.
It’s peaceful on the Cartagena waterfront.


Should you find yourself in Cartagena , be sure to pause long enough to order a Café Asiático, a coffee-based drink with milk, brandy and a locally produced liquor, Licor 43:
