Cartagena Sex Guide advises where to find sex, working girls, prostitution, street hookers, brothels, red-light districts, sex shops, prostitutes, erotic massage parlors, strip clubs and escorts in Cartagena, Colombia.

Cartagena is a city in, Colombia. The city was one of the first sanctuaries of freed African slaves in the Americas and is currently populated by an ethnic mix representative of Colombia's own variety.

Cartagena, located on Colombia's northern coast and facing the Caribbean Sea, is the most visited city in the country by tourists. It gets extremely crowded in the December holidays and the holy week, when schools are out and most Colombians take their vacations.

Sex and Prostitution in Cartagena (Colombia)

Colombia is another hot spot in South America for sex tourism. It is a well known secret that Colombian sex workers will lower their prices if the client is attractive and a good negotiator, which may be why the Colombia is so popular when it comes to sex tourism. However, thousands probably also travel to Colombia hoping that every woman will look like beautifully curvy.

The city has basically two main parts where tourists go: the walled colonial city ("ciudad amurallada"), which is truly amazing and has many fancy restaurants, clubs and hotels; and a long strip of hotel towers and condos fronting onto the beach, known as Bocagrande. It is also nice to visit the exclusive neighborhood of Castillogrande, filled with recently built condos, places to jog, and a quiet beach to soak up some sun.

Cartagena old city.

Prostitution in Colombia is legal as long as it is done in designated "tolerance zones".

Cartagena is probably the most touristic and most expensive city in Colombia. That reflects often to prostitute prices as well.

Red Light Districts

There is no official red-light district in Cartagena but finding working girls is very easy. Some people may consider Getsemani a some sort of red light zone because you can find many short time hotels and street prostitutes from Getsemani. At the daytime most girls hang out inside the patio areas of the cheap hotels and apartments. So you can see them if you walk slowly in the street and look inside the building entrance´s on the street. At the nighttime more girls will come out on the streets. Usually you will find better looking Getsemani girls from the Calle 30 while the low end hookers tend to hang out on Carrera 10c. (In January 2019, the street hookers were very much less evident than is stated above. The best place in Getsemani now is Parque Centenario, especially around dusk. There is a short time hotel just off the western corner of the park that these girls use. Around $50,000 pesos ($15 US) will rent a fairly attractive hooker for half an hour)

There are many short-time hotels in Carrera 10 and carrera 10c. These rooms costs around US$10 and the price also includes condoms, soap and towels.

Prostitutes and Sex Workers

Prostitutes in Cartagena are working in casas (brothels), streets, nightclubs, discos, bars and escorts are advertising their services online.

Cartagena like many other South American and Caribbean cities are now being overrun by girls from Venezuela escaping the poverty there and turning to sex work. The same thing is happening in the sex work at the Dominican Republic ( Punta Cana and Santo Domingo), but also in the Domican gold digger business where local women hunt foreign man, but now the Venezuelans are taking over! In Colombia, this also happens in Bogota and Cúcuta!

Peru and Ecuador are experiencing the same albeit to a lesser extent. So this is causing a lot of racism towards the Venezuelan women at these countries, since the local girls are seeing the Venezuelans as an enemy who is coming to take the foreign men who are visiting these countries! In Europe similar racism happens sometime towards the Arabic men in South Europe, where local Italian and Spanish gigolos are hunting for white scandinavian ladies.

Street Hookers

Sometimes the street sex girls are loitering on the streets. They can also go into the bars or discos for finding customers. You can find street walkers in Cartagena from these areas:

  • Along Avenida San Martin: There are a few on the corner of San Martin (Carrera 2) and Calle 5a, across the street from the short time Hotel El Pueblito. They are asking between 80k-100k. If you hang at the Café Arepas Pues a few chicas will walk by. This café seems like it could be a good monger meeting place. A few chicas in front of the Casino Rio, San Martin and Calle 6.
  • Plaza de los Dulces around the Clock Tower in El Centro (Old City) late night. Prices: 50-80k.
  • In front of Bar California, on the other side of the Clock Tower, outside the walls, past the gardens, where Calle Media Luna begins (Getsemani). And along the Calle there are more. In the day time, they are in the garden. Sometimes, they move to the streets close by.

Short time hotels on Carrera 10 tend to be a bit cleaner than the short time rooms on 10c.

Any sex worker has to produce her cédula ( identification card) or if foreign her passport to prove she is 18 before she can enter any hotel or apartment or hostel! Prostitution in Colombia is legal so no issues if she is of legal age.


Stay Safe

Those street vendors offer you a very good exchange rate. After you have counted the money you will recognize that a small amount is missing, and after complaining he will put exactly that amount on top again. In the same move they will take some big notes from the bottom. Most people won't count their money a second time, and first think they made a good deal but in fact got ripped off. Be very careful when walking at night specially around lonely parts of the city.

Tips for Currency Exchange and Retrieving Pesos from ATM machines. Most hotels, upscale restaurants take credit cards, but many places, especially taxis only accept Colombian pesos. Some banks may exchange money, but the rates may not be the most convenient. The easiest method for obtaining pesos is to use your debit card at an ATM machine. Another option is to use a Cambio or curreny exchange kiosk, however, your exchange rate will be a little higher than by using a debit card. Using a credit card at the ATM machine will require you to use a PIN number, so contact your financial institution before your trip.

There is a large Citibank ATM location on calle Venezuela near Barrio San Diego that has a guard out front. Seemingly available 24/7.

Taking a walk

When in the Old City do not walk outside the walls after dark, and remember that it is a large city, so just use common sense. The street vendors can be very annoying, but a simple "No quiero nada" in Spanish will keep them away.
