Discover the Rosario Islands at your own pace on an all-day private boat charter, with a stop for snorkeling at La Piscinita and free choice of where to eat rather than a fixed resort partnership.
Unlike a fixed-itinerary island day trip, this private charter (for groups up to 17) is built to be flexible, with no built-in restaurant or resort partnership, so you can choose where to eat from the island's own varied food scene. Real stops include snorkeling at La Piscinita and viewing the well-known site of what is described locally as Pablo Escobar's former island mansion.

About This Tour
Discover the Rosario Islands at your own pace on an all-day private boat charter, with a stop for snorkeling at La Piscinita and free choice of where to eat rather than a fixed resort partnership. Unlike a fixed-itinerary island day trip, this private charter (for groups up to 17) is built to be flexible, with no built-in restaurant or resort partnership, so you can choose where to eat from the island's own varied food scene. Real stops include snorkeling at La Piscinita and viewing the well-known site of what is described locally as Pablo Escobar's former island mansion.
The archipelago is protected as part of the Corales del Rosario y San Bernardo National Natural Park, established in 1977. Its mangroves, lagoons and coral formations hold more than a thousand species, which is why snorkelling here is worthwhile even in shallow water.
A charter that carries up to 17 people changes the trip's character: it suits family reunions and larger friend groups, and with no fixed lunch partnership you can pick where to eat on the islands rather than follow a set menu.
The 'Pablo Escobar mansion' stop is local lore tied to the island's ruined buildings. We could not verify the property's ownership from independent sources, so treat it as a story your guide tells rather than a documented fact.
