What the Day Looks Like

Your boat awaits from 9:00 am at the marina. By 10:00 am, you’re gliding toward Isla Grande, the sea opening ahead as the noise of the city fades behind.

We start the day at Caño Ratón—a calm reef ideal for snorkeling—or slip through the mangrove channels that only small boats and local guides know. These first stops are quiet, scenic, and perfect for taking in the Rosario Islands without the crowd.

When it’s time for lunch, we guide you to a refined beach club—options include Sabai, Aura, or our boutique villa Casa Rosario. Each offers fresh Caribbean cuisine, comfortable spaces, and an atmosphere that invites you to stay longer than planned.

The afternoon can be shaped around you: another swim, a walk along a deserted stretch of beach, or simply relaxing on deck with a view that doesn’t ask for filters.

Around 4:00 pm, we start our slow return. The sea is usually calmer now, and as we pass Tierra Bomba, the skyline greets you gently—another reminder that peace doesn’t need to be far.
