Castillogrande offers a bay-side beach with gentler water than the exposed Caribbean-facing stretches described in local tourism guidance. Its position at the peninsula’s southern end also gives a different view of Cartagena’s harbor. Come for a quieter waterfront pause or water sports, and make this a separate choice from nearby Bocagrande rather than treating the two beaches as one.
What to look for
Bay-facing shore at the peninsula's southern end
Generally gentler surf than exposed beaches
Kayak and other water-sport activity
Useful to know
