Tierrabomba Island

Enjoy discovering important places in the village of bocachica and bike through the forest to encounter a XVII military fortress where canons were fired to defend the city against pirates.
Fuerte de San Fernando de Bocachica
Explore 400-Year-Old Fortresses – Visit the island’s ancient fortifications, including Batería del Ángel San Rafael and San Fernando de Bocachica, key military structures that once defended Cartagena from pirate invasions.
Bateria del Angel San Rafael
