46 ft Yacht Palladium – Rosario Islands Yacht Charter (up to 13 guests)









The 46 ft yacht Palladium is a Sea Ray flying the Colombian flag and our most comfortable way to spend a full day in the Rosario Islands. Twin 670 HP Cummins engines, two cabins, two bathrooms, a kitchen, an air-conditioned indoor lounge with TV, an outdoor lounge with TV and a solarium at the bow turn the trip into a private villa on the water. The price covers up to 10 guests, and up to 13 can come aboard for an extra fee per guest.
Pick Palladium for anniversaries, proposals, family days with grandparents and corporate guests who value comfort over speed. Rest in the cabins between swims, keep drinks cold with 22 kg of ice, and enjoy a smoother, quieter ride than a speedboat on your yacht rental day in Cartagena.
How a day on Palladium works
Private transport picks you up where you are staying and takes you to the dock. The yacht is at your disposal from 8:30 AM and leaves the islands by 4:00 PM at the latest. You choose your pickup time between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM, every 30 minutes. Both times depend on the weather and on the orders of the Cartagena Port Authority (Capitanía de Puerto), which has the final word on every departure for safety and to prevent accidents.
On board you travel with a captain, an assistant and a bilingual guide. The guide shares the best recommendations for the day, but the route follows what you want to see. There is one condition, and it is about safety: the yacht travels in a single direction. It heads out toward the islands, turns around once and comes back to Cartagena, and on both legs you stop at whatever is on the way. It cannot go back and forth between distant points.
What the price includes
The price covers private transport with pickup, the bilingual guide, the crew, a cooler with ice, snorkel gear (masks and snorkels, without fins) and a reservation at a private beach. Food and drinks are not included, so you choose how to handle them. You can bring your own to enjoy on the yacht or on public beaches, or add drinks and snacks as extras when you book.
Islands and beaches you can visit
We work with partner beaches such as Isla Capri and Rosario de Mar, where our guests are not charged for access as long as they eat and drink there. If you prefer another island, we arrange the reservation for you and you pay that club directly. Public beaches such as Cholón and Playa Blanca are also on the route, and there you are free to bring your own food and drinks.
If you are still choosing where to go, our complete guide to the Rosario Islands explains how the archipelago is laid out, and the island day passes show what each beach club is like.
Make the day your own
On request we can customize the trip: drinks and food on board, decorations for a celebration, a jet ski, a cabana in the water at Cholón, or anything else you have in mind. The most common extras are listed in the booking form, and there is a box where you can write what you need. We confirm the price of special requests before your trip.
Good to know before you book
The yacht takes a maximum of 13 guests, children included. Only one group can book Palladium per day, so the date is blocked for you as soon as you pay. Sea conditions change through the year, and the captain may adjust the route or the timing for your safety.
Private boats for every group size
Want a faster ride or a lower budget? Our private speedboats include the same service: Nederucho (28 ft, up to 6 guests), Ginger (29 ft, up to 8 guests), Ivana Sofía (29 ft, up to 8 guests), Uchalex (29 ft, up to 8 guests), Bellamare (29 ft, up to 8 guests), Catalunya (33 ft, up to 12 guests), Altamare (34 ft, up to 14 guests), Interceptor (38 ft, up to 14 guests), Makani (38 ft, up to 15 guests), Sugar Mommy (45 ft, up to 18 guests), La Leona (42 ft, up to 24 guests), Oly 420 (42 ft, up to 26 guests), Vicky 420 (42 ft, up to 26 guests) and Virginia 420 (42 ft, up to 26 guests).
