Transfer from Barranquilla Airport to Bocas de Ceniza (Mouth of Magdalena River)

The journey follows Vía 40, an eight-kilometre road running north from the airport towards central Barranquilla. It meets the Avenida Circunvalar at Las Flores, a busy access hub, and nearer the coast the western dike, or tajamar occidental, separates the Magdalena River from the sea.

Your driver meets you at the arrivals baggage-hall exit of your landing terminal, holding a name sign. Allow about an hour, with slower progress around Las Flores at peak times. Most vehicles stop at Las Flores or Puerto Mocho, and the final stretch to the river mouth is walked or ridden on a rough, unpaved track.

A pre-booked private transfer beats the alternatives on this route. Taxis require fare haggling after a long flight, the train from Las Flores to Puerto Mocho has a timetable that is hard to verify, and bus C11 passes near Bocas with uncertain timings. Your fixed price includes tolls and charges, and a free 60-minute wait at arrivals covers baggage delays.
