A lively cruise with spectacular views and good vibes

Imagine gliding through Cartagena’s bay on a well-outfitted yacht or sports boat, music pulsing, drinks flowing, and the sun painting the sky in hues of orange and pink. For just $31 per person, this 2-hour sunset or night cruise offers a lively way to soak in the city’s coastal beauty from the water. The experience is typically hosted at Sibarita del Mar — your starting point — with the boat named Dubai or a ponton-style vessel called DUBAI, both matching the photos you’ll see online.

What we really love about this tour is the combination of great music and unobstructed bay views. The DJ on board keeps the energy high, whether you’re dancing, chatting, or just soaking up the scenery. Plus, the open bar options — whether rum and coke or orange juice — ensure you’re refreshingly sustained as you watch Cartagena’s skyline fade into night.

One small consideration: availability of the DJ isn’t guaranteed at all times; sometimes an entertainer substitutes, but the experience remains lively. Also, the tour is not suitable for children, pregnant women, or travelers with certain health conditions, so it’s best suited for adults seeking a fun, social outing.

This cruise appeals most to those who enjoy music, socializing, and scenic views. If you’re looking for a relaxed sunset with a lively soundtrack and a touch of party atmosphere, this experience hits the spot.

How the experience unfolds

The tour begins at Sibarita del Mar, a familiar starting point for many boat excursions in Cartagena. Once settled on the boat — whether the sleek yacht or the sportboat — you’re immediately immersed in a festive vibe. The DJ or performer, depending on availability, sets the tone with upbeat music, whether you’re into salsa, pop, or chill tunes. We loved how the music played a pivotal role in creating a lively, joyful atmosphere that encourages everyone to relax and enjoy.

Your boat will cruise through Cartagena’s bay, a calm waterway offering uninterrupted views of the city’s skyline, historic fortresses, and the distant hills. The sunset time slot is particularly popular, as the sky transforms into a palette of pinks, reds, and oranges. If you opt for the evening cruise, you’ll experience the city’s lights gradually flickering on, creating a magical setting.

The itinerary in detail

• Stop 1: Starting at Sibarita del Mar — your gateway into the bay adventure, with a clear briefing on the safety and schedule.
• Stop 2: Cruising the bay — the highlight, with spectacular views of Cartagena’s coastline, and a chance to snap photos or simply soak up the scenery.
• Stop 3: Return to Sibarita del Mar — where the tour concludes, and you’re free to continue your evening in Cartagena’s nightlife.

Drinks and socializing

The open bar is a real highlight. You can indulge in rum and coke or orange juice, with the drinks available at all times during the cruise. The tour notes that you’re welcome to bring your own drinks at no extra cost, which is perfect if you want to customize your experience. The drinks are supplied by the tour provider, subject to availability, so it’s good to keep that in mind.

Why the music and atmosphere matter

The presence of a DJ transforms the cruise from a simple boat ride into a party on the water. According to reviews, the DJ “talks while we enjoy a spectacular sunset,” creating a lively, engaging environment. When the DJ isn’t available, an entertainer takes over, and travelers still report having a “fun” experience. This element makes the cruise particularly suitable for groups, couples, or solo travelers looking to meet new friends in a relaxed setting.

Price and value

At $31 per person, this experience offers excellent value for the lively atmosphere and scenic route. Compared to other water tours that might focus solely on sightseeing, this cruise’s emphasis on music and socializing adds a lot of entertainment for the price.

• Arrive at the meeting point early to find the boat easily and settle in comfortably.
• Bring your own drinks if you want a wider variety, especially if you prefer something beyond the supplied options.
