Island Getaway in Barú, Colombia
Leanne, Flight Attendant at Air Transat and travel enthusiast, brings you to discover her top spots in Isla Barú - a gorgeous, luscious and paradise-worthy island in Colombia, and surrounding islands. Its beautiful beaches, turquoise waters and diverse fauna and flora makes it a perfect destination to unwind and soak in nature's beauty.
Follow her as she takes off by boat from Cartagena's port to reach Rosario Island, a pretty archipelago in the middle of bright turquoise waters. She'll share the best snorkelling spot in the area, and a secluded beach where you can reach a sand bar that makes you look like you can walk on water. Then, she navigates to Isla Baru, where she visits a bird sanctuary full of local species including flamingoes, spatulas, eagles, herons, storks, parrots and toucans. She ends this perfect day on Playa Blanca, a very popular beach among locals where she watches the sunset.
