Puerto Velero beach

Puerto Velero is a beach in the western suburbs of Barranquilla, Colombia. It is almost a closed lagoon. So there are no waves, nor algae. Unfortunately, the beach is still rather mediocre. Sand is dark, sea water is muddy. There are also no trees near the coastline. For unknown reason, it is a popular kite spot. Shore and seabed: sand. [edit]

Hotels [edit]

Hotel Marina Puerto Velero is a three-star property with swimming pool. Rooms' fares start from US$100 per night.

Villa Forero is a small house near the beach. Sometimes they install a frame pool. But you should ask about it before you make a booking.

How to get there [edit]

Fly to Cartagena international airport (CTG). Then get by bus or by taxi.

When to go [edit]
