San Pedro de Majagua Day Pass — Rosario Islands

Description

San Pedro de Majagua is a hotel on Isla Grande, in the Rosario Islands, reached by shared boat out of Cartagena. What the day pass buys is a beach, a lounger and a towel that are yours for the day and a lunch you sit down to — and the whole thing runs on the hotel’s single daily rhythm rather than a tour operator’s timetable.

Check-in is at Muelle de la Bodeguita, Gate #3, at 8:00 AM, which leaves room for the boarding formalities before the 8:30 AM departure. When you land there is a cocktail and a cold refreshing towel, and after that nothing is programmed: the beach, your lounger, and lunch when you want it. The boat usually leaves the hotel at 3:00 PM to come home.

There are two plans. The standard one centres on a whole mojarra, fried or grilled, with several swaps available if you would rather have something else. The VIP plan puts a mixed seafood grill in its place and adds an hour in a canoe through the mangroves.

If you want the Oceanario, a shared boat runs across to Isla San Martín de Pajarales at 11:30 AM. The hotel arranges the transfer; the entry ticket costs extra.

Frequently asked questions

What time should I be at the pier?

8:00 AM at Muelle de la Bodeguita, Gate #3. Boarding registration takes a while and the boat goes at 8:30 AM — it is the only departure the hotel runs, so there is no later option.

What is not in the price?

Port taxes — zarpe, national park and boat insurance — estimated at $38,000 COP per person for 2026. That figure is an estimate and can change, since taxes are set under Colombian law.

What is the difference between the standard and VIP plans?

Lunch and one activity. Standard serves a whole mojarra, fried or grilled, swappable for fish fillet, beef, grilled chicken or a vegetarian plate. VIP serves a mixed seafood grill — fish, shrimp, squid, octopus, king prawns and mussels — and adds a shared canoe trip through the mangroves lasting about an hour.

Can we visit the Oceanario?

Yes. A shared boat leaves for Isla San Martín de Pajarales at 11:30 AM on the hotel’s schedule. The transfer comes with your pass; the entry ticket is paid separately.
