Guatapé Boat Day and Island Stops

The reservoir at its best: island stops, swimming off the back and lunch on the water.

Overview

The Guatapé reservoir flooded a valley, which is why it has hundreds of inlets and islands and why a boat day here beats a beach day almost anywhere. Water is warm, the surface is glassy most mornings, and the rock is always somewhere in view.

We charter privately, so you stop where you like, swim when you like and eat when you like. Simple, and consistently the best day of the week for families.
