The engine roars, salt-slick spray arcs away, and Cartagena’s skyline slides aft as you accelerate from the Windspot beach at El Laguito. In thirty minutes you can slice across the blue bay, trace the arc toward Tierra Bomba’s low green rim and skim past the beaches of Castillo Grande and Bocagrande, all under the watchful silhouette of the city’s colonial ramparts.
