Panamá

About Panamá

Panamá is where continents and oceans converge. Watch colossal ships transit the Panamá Canal from the Miraflores Locks visitor centre, then explore Casco Viejo — Panamá City's beautifully restored colonial quarter and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On the Caribbean side, the San Blas Islands (Guna Yala) offer some of the most untouched tropical scenery in the Americas, governed by the indigenous Guna people. Bocas del Toro provides surf, snorkelling, and overwater bungalows, while the Gamboa Rainforest offers wildlife encounters just minutes from the capital.
