Landmark · Tourist Spot
Take a leisurely stroll along the river at Malecon Leon Caridi, a pier stretching 700 m (2,297 ft). Walking along the shore you'll see plenty of benches, so bring a book along in case you want to take a short break. Bird enthusiasts should bring a camera for the pelicans and other water birds in high numbers along the boardwalk. As the area is still under development, touristic services and restaurants are not aplenty here so pack some lunch. To find out how to plan a trip to Barranquilla, use our trip itinerary maker.

    The road is kinda broken.. however, this is a good place to chill. Nice coconut water pretty affordable (US$ 1).
  • By Juan Blanco
    It will be nice when they finish the whole project, right now it's a bit barren since there is not much to do
