The Fishermen Village and Gabriel Gracia Marquez
Departure early in the morning to La Boquilla to discover the birds of the Caribbean in the mangroves in the so-called Marsh of the Virgin. Mangroves are a very rich maritime ecosystem and they are very important for environmental balance, especially ecological resilience after cyclones and others. Meet with the local fishermen to learn how to line fish and catch crabs with a cage. Go out to the sea for fishing then return to the village to cook whatever you caught. You will then learn how to prepare the fish in the local style. In the afternoon, visit the Cartagena of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. It is a visit full of stories, where each corner has a character and each window has a story to tell. You will visit the houses and squares that appear in his books; as well as the streets and the atmosphere of the city which is undoubtedly present in each one of his works. So great was Gabo's love and fascination with Cartagena that his ashes rest in the Cloister of Mercy in Cartagena, according to his wishes. Overnight in Cartagena.
