Once in Cartagena, to get to Barú Island and Playita Cholón (the place of the best yacht parties in Cartagena Colombia) you will have several options depending on the Cholón Tour you book, but basically you can go by land (approximately 1 hour 10 minutes and 43km away) taking the road called La Vía a Barú or by sea (45 minutes approximately) going by speedboats or yachts that depart mainly from El Muelle La Bodeguita or some other piers according to the agency or the Cholón tour package you purchased.
Needless to say, the most fun and enjoyable way to take this tour to Barú island and Cholón is to go by sea, in a modern and luxurious boat or yacht with a cabin to rest a few minutes if the sun or the party gets very extreme.
