Setting Sail to Bocachica

Ahoy, fellow adventurers! If you’re looking for a family-friendly escapade that combines history, fun, and relaxation, then the Island Tour to Bocachica, Cholon, and Baru is your ticket to paradise. As a mom who loves crafting stress-free travel itineraries, I was thrilled to embark on this journey with my family. The promise of exploring beautiful islands in one day was too tempting to resist.

Our adventure began with a boat ride to the port of Bocachica. The kids were bubbling with excitement as the salty breeze tousled their hair. Our guide, a warm and welcoming soul, made us feel right at home. He shared fascinating tales of the Castillo de San Luis de Bocachica, a military fortress built by the Spanish during the colonial era. The kids were captivated by the stories of pirates and battles, and I couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe standing amidst such rich history.

Snorkeling and Partying in Cholon

Next stop, Isla Grande! Here, we donned our snorkeling gear and plunged into the crystal-clear waters. A professional guide led us through the vibrant underwater world, pointing out colorful fish and coral formations. It was a magical experience, and even my youngest, who was initially hesitant, couldn’t stop giggling with delight.

After our underwater adventure, we headed to Cholon, famously known as the party island. The atmosphere was electric, with music, laughter, and the gentle sway of boats. While the kids enjoyed splashing around in the shallow waters, my husband and I took a moment to relax and soak in the lively ambiance. It was the perfect blend of family fun and a little bit of grown-up relaxation.

Relaxing in Baru

Our final destination was Isla Baru, where we planned to spend the rest of the afternoon. The island’s pristine beaches and inviting facilities were a dream come true. We indulged in a delicious lunch, savoring the local flavors while the kids built sandcastles nearby.

As the sun began to set, we took a leisurely stroll along the beach, collecting seashells and creating memories that would last a lifetime. The day had been a whirlwind of adventure, laughter, and bonding, and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect family outing.

If you’re planning a trip to Bocachica, I highly recommend the Island Tour for a day filled with exploration, fun, and relaxation. It’s an experience that will leave you with a heart full of joy and a camera roll full of cherished moments.
