It was built for the defense of the city, began at the end of the sixteenth century after the attack of the legendary Sir Francis Drake. The fortification is the most complete of the continent of South America and one of the best and well-preserved walls of the walled cities of the world and has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

A barrier constructed by Antonio de Arévalo in 1779 to protect the beach that developed in front of the Bulwark of Santa Catalina because of the construction of the Marina Wall (1765-1771), designed by the same engineer to eliminate the negative effects of the pounding of the sea against the walls.
It was one of the first sections constructed in the walled city, flanking the Bulwark of Santo Domingo on the left. Begun around 1614 by order of the governor, Diego de Acuña, its plan was designed by the engineer Cristóbal de Roda following the project proposed in 1595 by Bautista Antonelli, also an engineer, to protect the most exposed area of the city, the strip of sand that joined it to Bocagrande.
A very touristy place is Baru, a peninsula, often called an island, which is bounded by the bay of Cartagena, the Dique Canal and the Caribbean Sea. It is famous for its white and pink sands, as well as for its crystalline water that allows you to see the bottom and many colorful fish. Nearby there are mangrove swamps, water mirrors and underwater gardens.
Bird watching and adventure sports are very popular activities. It is one of the favorite destinations for tourists visiting Cartagena de Indias in Colombia, as it is only 45 minutes away by boat.
