Bocas Town

Bocas del Toro is a town with a strong personality.

In Bocas you know you're on vacation at the time you arrive, at the moment you get off the water taxi or the plane, at the moment you smell the scents of the sea.

There is no despair for taxis. Many people on the streets walking or cycling. Everyone greets you, all talk with you.

There are no long runs, the center is within walking distance of everything and everyone, there are beaches within minutes of the main street.

Do not come across a big city atmosphere, but with a fascinating mix of cultures from all over Panama and the farthest reaches of the planet.

The Islands of the Archipelago

During a tour of the Bocas del Toro Archipelago (the islands), you have an immediate sense of unspoiled and uncontaminated nature.

In Bocas del Toro, we decided to protect our natural environment. So here was created the first marine park in the country. The beauty of our underwater scenery attracts those who like snorkeling and the avid scuba divers. Above the surface it is a paradise of surfers and kayakers.

Birdwatching on the islands is fascinating, especially in its sanctuary, Bird Island, a nature reserve. But there are also places to watch dolphins, monkeys and sloths.

But it's not just this. The options are many more that you will discover here, in your Portal of the Tourism of Bocas del Toro, www.bocas.com.
