“Over 1,400 marine animals call this place home,” the tour guide whispered, his voice barely audible above the cries of gulls and the gentle lapping of the waves against the pier. You’re standing right before the Oceanario, a conservation center nestled on the Isla San Martin de Pajarales in the Rosario Islands. Unlike many aquariums, the Oceanario is deeply committed to the conservation of the Colombian Caribbean’s marine life. For over 20 years, they’ve been championing the protection of sea turtles, monitoring their journeys, and studying their nesting habits. Inside, you’ll encounter a stunning diversity of over 140 marine species. You can witness the grace of dolphins firsthand, their sleek bodies gliding through the water. But the true spectacle unfolds when experienced trainers hand-feed a group of over 30 sharks. Observing these majestic creatures up close, dispelling the myths often associated with them, is a truly awe-inspiring experience that the Oceanario offers its visitors.
