Communitarian tourism model, where the direct beneficiaries are: 14 native hostels and 4 native guide companies that benefit about 60 families. The community depends on the activity of tourism, specially shops, transport, craftsmen, artists and connoisseurs. The results are evident, unlike other communities in the insular and coastal Cartagena, Rosario Islands has no foreign businesses. All businesses are domestic and that gives us a lot of autonomy, growth and well-being.
