Visit Bocas Del Toro

Looking for a tropical paradise where primary rainforest meets old school caribbean islands dotted with banana plantations and seeped in a shock of blue waters, then the Bocas del Toro archipelago is all that you need.

Located just 32 kilometres from the Costa Rican border, the six densly forested islands and numerous uninhabited islets as well as Panama’s oldest marine park, The Parque Nacional Marino Isla Bastimentos, will envite, entice and entertain you on your stay.

Both wild and beautiful, Bocas offers a wide range of tourist attractions including a hefty dose of surf and sun. In addition to being the long time roost of Chiquita Banana, the mainland is also home to the Binational Parque International La Amistad.

This Unesco world heritage site supports a wide range of fauna as well as the Ngobe-Bugle settlements where inhabitants still live life in their traditional manner. In addition, this area is home to the elusive Jaguar and one of the only remaining Naso Tribes in the Americas to retain their traditional monarchy.

For many visitors in search of a paradise getaway, the perfect Bocas cocktail of thatched luxury accommodations and endless fun in the waters, nevery disappoints. While it is true that the secret is out and there is no sign of development slowing down, this boom in interest does have the locals debating if the increase in tourism can be sustained with the present infrastructure.

As with all beautiful places that become popular, the charm and character of a place rarely stay that way, so for those wishing to see Bocas del Toro as the wonderful Caribbean getaway, you should get here soon!
