Nohra Haime Galeria

Cartagena, Colombia

Check out the local talent at the Cartagena branch of the well known Nohra Haime Gallery in New York. Ruby Rumié is the gallery’s trump card; the Colombian artist paints, sculpts and photographs, focusing on injustice and psychology, drawing most of her inspiration from Getsemaní.

Trip to the islands

Cartagena, Colombia

For a breezy break from the city’s stifling heat, head to Coralina Island in the Islas del Rosario, where you can sip coconut cocktails on the private island or snorkel in the brilliantly green sea. More secluded and less well known than Tierra de Bomba or the other islands in the archipelago, a VIP day trip costs a mere £50 and includes a private boat ride, a deliciously fresh lunch and snorkelling gear.
