Stop At: Galerazamba, Galerazamba, Bolivar Department
The pink sea is in the department of Bolívar is the town of Galerazamba, which is part of the municipality of Santa Catalina. The place has a great history and its salt flats steal the entire show, as they give the waters forming the intense pink sea.
Without a doubt, the main attraction of this district is its pink sea. This is one of the phenomena that most attracts tourists to Galerazamba. Salinas turn red when the salt is almost ready to explode. Previously it was only a few months, now it is the whole year that they left a swimming pool for tourists.
In recent years the Galerazamba Rincón Mágico campaign was launched. The idea is to recover the splendor of the town and turn it into a destination par excellence of the department of Bolivar. For this, the Loma Arena - Galerazamba road was built and work is being done to recover the beaches that suffer from erosion.

Had a great time with the museum tour and learned about salt production. We went to the pink lake,but wasn’t as pink as I thought. Highlight was the mud volcano. Amazing time and met 2 new friends. I recommend them

The volcano part of the tour was nice. I would’ve given the tour more stars if it were just the volcano. The museum is a hole in the wall and pointless part of the tour and the pink sea wasn’t pink yet. Tour could be less time and straight to the point

The guide did not like her job. She was eating snacks and on her phone most of the time. She didn’t bother to show us the pink lake. She didn’t even say bye.
The mud volcano is a lot of fun but you gotta be strong because they’re very aggressive with the tipping.

The guide was not friendly. Didn’t introduce herself, barely said hello. She texted us that they were very close to the hotel but it was still another 20 min wait outside and then someone showed up not meeting the description of who was picking us up.
Went to a crappy little museums out salt and then “pink beach” which nobody in their right mind could ever describe as pink.
The volcano mud bath was fun! Felt really cool and relaxing.
Dropped some people off for lunch and back to the area of our hotel 7 hours later. Driver wouldn't take us all the way back to the hotel, he dropped us off about 6 blocks away. Maybe he didn’t want to deal with the traffic? We didn’t care. It was 5+ hours of driving for the 45 min volcano experience.
I would not recommend this tour.

The experience was good, but the tour company wasn't the best. For starters, they arrive 50 minutes late.
Secondly, the van was pretty hot.
Thirdly, the van didn't have seatbelts.
Fourthly, the tour operator lady didnt explain much, she could have been a bit more informative. Also, she never greeted us and she never introduced herself. The entire time, we were unsure what was happening.
Fifth, its completely pointless to go to the lake, especially because they were aware the lake wasnt going to be pink, well before picking us up. They should remove the pink lake from the advertisement, until they are sure it's going to be pink. I see where all the other reviews mention the lake not being pink, so why continue to take us there?
Driver did fix flat

Booked the trip, good communication and pick up on time. However the minibus was worn and could not comfortably take the required passengers. Even small children would have struggled to fit in some of the seats and many of us were 6 foot. The van tyres were threadbare, definitely not street legal. The air con did not work without extreme screeching. The driver stopped to get a candle to wax the belt but that only lasted ten minutes. No air con with 12 people in a small van for 3 hours of driving.
We were forced to use the middle seat next to the driver but it had no seat belt.
Staff were friendly and the volcano was interesting and fun.

The steps were a beast however, overall we enjoyed the experience. This is a man made volcano therefore you should not expect a true volcano experience. When our group arrived there were a lot of other visitors which delayed our experience. This is a small area and gets crowded quickly. The massages were great in a short period of time. Yuilanna was very informative throughout the tour. The sea was not pink however, nobody can control mother nature.

Such a great experience! Started by visiting Galazambia and learning about the salt trade. The flats weren’t pink on our day of visit but we knew that could be a possibility, still beautiful. The mud volcano was an unforgettable experience. Please come prepared for topping (we tipped the man who took photos, the man who watched our shoes, the massagers, the women who wash you and the man who monitored our bags while we were out) - additionally there are several spots for foods/drinks in the area that we didn’t visit but looked great. Overall 10/10

Great experience. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and professional. The mud volcano was a bit crowded but we had enough time enjoying the mud and bath and no not feel rushed

Tour seemed very disorganized. The tour guide did not seem knowledgeable about the sea we visited or the benefits of the experience. Disorganized system for tipping.
