Packing List for Cartagena

Cartagena has become one of my favorite cities in the world! With 16th century plazas, a tropical climate and colorful colonial buildings it’s hard not to fall in love! 

Nestled on the Caribbean coast of Colombia, this port city is the perfect warm weather getaway.  You can walk around the historic walled center surrounded by brightly colored buildings, sip fresh fruit juice from a rooftop terrace, or take a quick boat ride to one of the beautiful islands off the coast. 

Essentials:

A bikini or swimsuit (or bring a few! - I basically live in mine!)

A cute coverup

Comfortable Sandals for exploring the historic center

Wedge heels for a night out

Shorts

A few light blouses

Light airy dresses or skirts

Hat

Sunnies

Sunscreen
