| Bocas
del Toro – Punta Caracol
Tucked away on the northwestern coastline of Panama is perhaps the
best kept secret in the Caribbean today…. Bocas del
Toro. An idyllic paradise of small islands, secluded inlets,
palm-fringed white sand beaches and breathtaking blue-green
water, Bocas del Toro has a quaint charm and easy going attitude
that’s hard to find in the better known Caribbean destinations.
To say that Bocas (as this area is often called) is undiscovered
is an understatement. Although frequented by adventurers
traveling from Costa Rica, mainstream tourism has yet to find
this Panamanian gem.
Just
a 40-minute commuter flight from Panama City, Bocas is a short
trip from the city but a world away in romantic atmosphere.
Secluded beaches and an archipelago of tiny islands fringe
the surrounding area and the unique combination of tropical
beauty and lush rainforest makes Bocas del Toro an unforgettable
destination. Kayaking, snorkeling, diving and fishing are
all available within minutes from your doorstep.
Our
choice of accommodations in this area is the Punta Caracol Eco-Resort, an intimate property
with five palapa-style bungalows built directly over the water.
This all-inclusive get-away includes a restaurant and bar
and is strategically constructed to take advantage of the
cooling sea breezes. Each private bungalow has spectacular
ocean views and the local sea life is literally under your
room. Package price includes airport transfers, welcome cocktail, daily breakfast, use of snorkeling gear,
kayaks, and daily dinner. The Punta Caracol Eco-Resort is
the perfect romantic hideaway you won’t soon forget.
Bocas
del Toro is located on the northwestern coast of Panama, about
30 miles east of the border with Costa Rica. Commuter flights
depart daily from the domestic Panama City airport.
