Galerazamba aka "The Pink Sea" became an instagram/tiktok sensation a couple of years back and suddenly everyone wanted to visit.
The pinkness is due to the saltiness of the waters and the existence of a type of algae called mugwort. Sounds Harry Potterish, right? It's also not really a sea. It is more like a lake, created to process the mining of salt via evaporation of the salty waters.
Galerazamba is located about 1 hour drive from Cartagena heading towards Barranquilla. Visiting the Salinas has become a super popular activity as a day trip. The landscape is pretty spectacular with the rosy waters, blue sky and unbroken horizon. There isn't really so much of a tour.. more of a photo op.
If you want to visit you can arrive via hire car, private driver or easiest of all, book a specific tour. There is a tour that combines the mud volcano with Galerazamba (only available during the months the sea is actually pink) or if you have 6 people you can opt to have the galerazamba visit on its own.
The best time to visit is December to March when the water is at its pinkest. Rainy season tends to dilute and muddy the colours. At time of booking we'll give as accurate assessment as possible as to current pinkness levels.
