The Craft Centre is located in Calle Honda, next to the well-known Plaza de los tres Reyes, and the Glorieta de San Francisco traffic circle. It occupies the ground floor of the building and the different rooms where the craftsmen exhibit their wares connect with one another. At the back, a room is dedicated to the temporary exhibitions and this is where the artists can display their newest creations each month.

This award winning bar / restaurant is a favourite with the locals in Estrella de mar and tourists alike, the food is excellent although the menu is not extensive, which is probably a good thing as every dish is given meticulous attention to the flavour and presentation, something that wouldn't be possible with a large menu. There is though, a dish to satisfy everyone, ribs or mixed grill if you're really hungry or try the home cooked ham eggs and fries for a tasty English favourite, I can also highly recommend the chicken Cesar salad... delicious! If Sunday roast is your thing then there's nowhere to compare with the Don Lorenzo carvery, with a selection of 3 roasts and an 'as much as you can eat' buffet, booking is highly recommended for Sunday lunch though, you will not be disappointed. Proprietors Simon and Joanne along with their staff, make you feel very welcome, with a selection of draught beers and cider from a well stocked bar, decent sized and comfortable beer gardens too. The bar / restaurant is signposted just off the main road that runs through the village. Quiz night on Wednesday offers loads of fun with everyone winning a small prize, Friday night is open the box with €500 being won on the Friday I was there.

This well-curated museum is built around an ancient necropolis and does an excellent job of taking you through Cartagena’s rise in the Carthaginian Empire before it became a major outpost of the Romans and, much later, the Moors. We enjoyed walking here from the port along the beautiful Alameda de San Anton, then headed north on Calle Jorge Juan for lunch at a nice strip of local restaurants you won’t find on TripAdvisor.

Wow, what a gem. Well worth the visit if you’re interested in this history. I could’ve spent way more than the 1.5 hours I spent before they closed. They have an awful lot of stuff. Half is presented with Spanish-only minimalistic captions. These are the “Here’s a bunch of stuff” sections. Cool if you can navigate in some meaningful way on your own. Then there are sections with big, new, easy to read placards with well-written, concise English that includes technical specifications. They’ve done a brilliant job with these placards. Kudos. These placards generally cover the big ticket artifacts. Museum lacks broader narrative on how things fit into operational or strategic considerations. Some placards for specific artifacts do discuss tactical relevance. Refreshing to see Spanish Civil War discussed (a bit) and not omitted like other museums. As of the day I visited, 9 December 2020, this museum is open 10am-2pm. Another military museum nearby, the Naval Museum of Cartagena, is also open the same hours. I suspect most people interested in this history would combine both in the same day as I did. Not enough time. I wish these museums found a way to make that work. As such, I was rushed on the second floor which contains a really wonderful history of the harbor defenses. The historical writing was informative in the English translations. Really easy to follow especially with superb, large defensive fortification models. Just leave time! Also upstairs are lots of uniforms. Then you turn a corner into a models section. I didn’t appreciate what this meant. Lots of models. As in, literally, the Guinness Book of World Records holder for largest collection of military models (as of 2012). It’s not just quantity, this is a qualitative collection and I wish I’d had more time with it. I don’t understand why this museum doesn't appear on every list of “Things to do” for not just the city but the whole region. Whoever added all those new placards that are so informative and easy to read (and well-translated) kicked this museum from a collection of stuff to a truly educational experience. Thank you for having me.

One could probably spend a whole day at this museum if they were to read everything and use all of the interactive exhibits. With displays including items from ancient coins and pottery to large sections of ancient ships, this museum is incredible. By just pushing a button, see how large, heavy objects are lifted from the sea bed with compressed air all inside a class tube.
