Isla Draga is an island located in the south of the Bay of Cartagena. In its western part, where the maritime traffic control station "San José" is located, almost 2000 m³ of sediment is dragged to the south (always in the same direction). This sediment is lost in the south of the island, where it escapes and is deposited in the sandbanks south of it. Due to this it was necessary to carry out studies and designs in the area in order to mitigate this problem. The data collected by the Caribbean Oceanographic and Hydrographic Research Center and the Data from the Sea Level Center of the University of Hawaii were used. With these data, models and designs were done to propose an integral and technically viable solution.
