★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 85 reviews · 8 hours to 1 day (approx.) Top rated

Rent an automatic beach cart, known locally as a mulita, for about eight hours and circle San Andrés at your own pace. You can stop at beaches, viewpoints, restaurants, and shops.

“Everything was fine but be mindful that the activity says 9 am to 5 pm but It was 10 am to 6 pm, I had to call at 930 because I was outside of the hotel since 9 am waiting it would be nice if they updated the description to be 10 am so you are not waiting for them, they also picked up the car past 6 pm so we had to wait like 20 mins. Other than that everything was fine.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 82 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $39

Spend about five hours by boat from Portofino Pier, with roughly two hours at Rocky Cay and three hours at the Aquarium, also called Rose Cay.

Bring water shoes, sunscreen, and snorkeling gear if you have it.

“Todos los que viajen al Archipiélago de San Andrés, Providencia y Santa Catalina, deben saber que los planes están sujetos a las condiciones climáticas que se presenten. Dicho esto, quiero compartirles la experiencia que vivimos con mi pareja. Desde un inicio, la compañía de viajes se contactó con nosotros 3 días antes de la fecha programada, para informar del guía turístico que nos estaría acompañando. Un día antes, la guía turística (Cecilia Forbes), nos escribió dándonos las indicaciones de hora y lugar para vernos. Llegamos a la hora indicada, y allá estaba esperándonos. Nos explicó que había una opción de cambio, ya que por lluvias y vientos fuertes no podríamos…”

14.San Andres Island Tour In Shared Pontoon

★★★★★★★★★★3.2 · 10 reviews · 1 day · from $22

Spend a full day on a shared pontoon from Marina Toninos, cruising San Andrés’ Seven-Color Bay with stops at White Wata, Haynes Cay, Rose Cay Aquarium, mangroves, Marine World, and El Palito. Expect music, life jackets, family-friendly swimming, and English or Spanish guidance, but allow for delays and loose port organization.

“O passeio é legal. Você realiza uma travessia não muito longa até a ilha de Haynes Cay e passa boa parte do dia lá. Para almoçar você faz a reserva do seu prato (valores a partir de 60.000 cop, comida ok mas nada saboroso); tem a opção de você guardar seus pertences (10.000 cop). O desembarque e embarque na ilha foi feito numa plataforma o que ajudou muito, pois outros barcos faziam na água mesmo. A área de banho Acuario é excelente. Você pode ir pela água mesmo ou ir por uma ponte flutuante que balança muito, as crianças adoram, mas um pouco arriscado para idosos. A área é excelente…”

San Andres: Transfer by Boat + Natural Aquarium

15.Transfer by Boat + Natural Aquarium

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 8 reviews · from $23

Take a short glass-bottom boat ride from Muelle de la Policía or Muelle Portofino to San Andrés Natural Aquarium. You get about half a day to swim, snorkel, and see starfish and tropical fish in clear seven-color water. The Spanish-speaking tour team coordinates pickup by WhatsApp, but you must arrange pier transport and pay the dock tax separately.

“Apart from the place which would be beautiful but is overcrowded and poorly managed (boats and boats unloading people) the transfer was really badly organized. We booked a departure pier and then they wrote to us to go to another-we had to pay another 5,000 cops each that was not anticipated. At the desk we found no one, on the phone no indication-after 20 minutes of searching we found an attendant who told us to wait to leave and he would call us...after 1 hour from the reservation we finally left. They unloaded us without telling us they needed coral shoes...so bought those too. At return time, which they had…”
