Destination Panama << San Blas Island


San Blas Island

The Bocas del Toro Archipelago consists of nine islands, 52 keys and some 200 tiny islets. The largest and most developed island is Colón Island, where the capital of the province, the town of Bocas del Toro, is located. The total population of the archipelago is around 9000 people, of whom roughly half live in the town of Bocas del Toro.
The islands are evolving rapidly from a backpackers’ destination into a more upscale resort area, so the sooner you get there, the less influenced the area will be by the outside world. There are a large number of hotels, restaurants, facilities for ecotourism and other adventures. Bocas del Toro offers white-sand beaches on the exposed Caribbean side, boat trips on the sheltered lagoon side, and everywhere opportunities for swimming, snorkeling, diving and sunbathing.
There are two ways to get to Bocas del Toro. The first is by road via the Inter American highway. The other way is to go by airplane with daily from Panama City, and other flights from David or Changuinola.
