Take the two-hour speed boat from Cartagena to the Islas San Bernardo for beaches with clean, clear water, few people, and no vendors. An archipelago
made up of 10 islands, these idyllic beaches are part of the Rosario and San Bernardo Corals National Natural Park. Sun yourself in the soft, white sand on
the largest beach in the islands at Isla Tintipán, then order a lobster plate for lunch. Spend a romantic night at one of the many hotels on Isla Mucura, the most popular of the islands, where you can walk by the waves to see the shimmer of bioluminescent plankton in the moonlight. Go for cocktails in the Casa en el Agua Hotel on a lone ocean reef, then catch the boat back to Cartagena the next day.
