I waited longer for this beach. Except for the clear blue water and white sand, I found it very crowded with makeshift stalls, looking precarious, and the strip of sand to the sea is quite small. The approach of the "locals" is ostentatious, they even become invasive to convince you to sit in a specific tent. The car access is slow and very ugly. We were tricked by one of the "locals," who despite being extremely polite and kind, overcharged us for our consumption and added a "tip" (they call it a gratuity) of over 30% of the bill's value. How our first trip was and we had no idea of prices in Cartagena, we felt pressured to pay. In summary, the experience was not good and I recommend that you hire a tour company to do this trip, making sure to negotiate the prices beforehand.

Great beach and tour guide
It was as described. 1 1/2 hour in bus then 3 minutes on a boat that leaves you on the beach. Food was good. Vendors were a bit annoying. Water was great!! Service tour were great!

Our guide was great! She...
Our guide was great! She met us on time at the meeting point, we boarded a van that took us an hour away from Cartagena. While en route our guide told us some more history and the plan for the day. She was very helpful! When we arrived to the beach area we walked down to a small boat that took us to a smaller beach away from lots of crowds and most vendors. Only a few to say no gracias to and got sucked into an overpriced massage haha but overall a very relaxing day!

A great day at the beach
Karina was a great host. It was overall a very good experience. I will warn those with mobility issues that there is a short, but steep, rocky path to get tothe beach, and you will have to maneuver into/out of a small boat. You will need to remove shoes to get into/out of the boat (a short 3-minute ride tou your section of the beach), so keep that in mind. It was a very relaxing day!

But don't go there.
never seen a havoc like this in a paradiso.in practice you go with the boat and you find yourself a thousand other boats like yours that unload hordes of tourists without control over the number of people so that the sea you do not even see it because it is full of boats and people and you swim in a square meter between the buoys (you do not do it where you want).experience to forget not to mention the return boat trip with waves of 3/4 meters for 50 minutes with people who had panic attacks in the open sea on a boat without any security

Super my vacation
I didn't have the time to comment because I was returning to my country but I found the beach excellent, the wonderful carina guide with all the information she gives, everything spectacular, I would gladly do the same tour together with the food that is exquisite, but there is a detail... I don't know if the man who took us -Jeison- is the same of all the tours of the agency to baru beaches, more I would like to highlight how little respect he has towards the clients he has as for example me, while the tour is given the man is in charge of slowing down to the vehicle in order to show the hunger he has for women and make obscene comments, he is working, he just has to drive does not have to be morbid...

It's worth it - Playa Blanca
Excellent experience, I recommend! Karina, our guide, was excellent. There is a drive of approximately 1 hour by car. The driver was the low point of the ride, but just ignore its direction. I recommend taking cash in kind; you can exchange dollars on the way to a fairly acceptable exchange. The place where we stayed is excellent, beautiful beach, no sellers (only the 3 known locations - still it is necessary to be firm in the "No"), good food. There is acceptable bathroom. I recommend taking the tour to dive and see the guaxinins. Talk to your own guide.
