Snorkelling in the Caribbean at Isla Grande, Colombia

Our day starts early with a pick-up from the pier just outside Secreto, our resort on Isla Grande in the Caribbean just off Cartagena in Colombia.
The ride out was short, and calm, and the ocean was that beautiful deep blue.
The kind of ocean you just want to stare at.
But we wanted to see what was underneath, to see the coral and the sea life.
The water was as clear as it looked from the boat.
And it was warm.
Perfect for snorkelling.
Our guide points out fish and different types of coral.
We follow him through the ocean, stopping whenever we come across interesting sea life.
But some of the fish are hard to see.
Or a little skittish.
Our second stop is a plane.
At the bottom of the ocean.
Our guide tells us it’s the crashed wreck of Pablo Escobar, the Colombian drug lord and politician.
But after a little digging (ie, a quick google search).
We found no evidence of a plane crash in this area.
We did find suggestions of a plane being sunk there to form an artificial reef
for a research study.
Whatever it is, it was cool to see.
One final stop at an island, where Ade snorkels in the reeds, while the rest of us chill out in the beautiful waters of the Caribbean and then we’re done.
