Best Luxury Hotels in Cartagena
Founded by the Carthaginians over two centuries B.C., this Spanish city went on to become a Roman stronghold, a fortified port and a major Spanish Naval base, thanks to its key location on the Mediterranean Sea. As such, there are many ruins and relics to see, and museums to visit. But you can also hit the beach; there are over 72 coves and sandy strips within the municipality, including the large and popular El Gorguel, ideal for safe swimming. And do sample some of the excellent local tapas via the buzzing Cartagena restaurant scene.
