Highlights
Leave the city behind and immerse yourself in the untouched beauty of the San Blas Islands. After an early pick-up in Panama City, travel through winding jungle roads before boarding your boat to the Caribbean. Your first stop is Isla Perro Chico, where you can snorkel around the shallow shipwreck or simply relax on soft white sands.
Cool off at the Natural Pool, a sandbank surrounded by clear waters, then head to Isla Chichime, one of San Blas’ most iconic islands. Here, enjoy a freshly prepared lunch (fish, chicken, or vegetarian) and time to explore the beach.
Before returning, make a final stop at Isla Diablo for photos, a swim, or a last chance to unwind. With roundtrip transport, guided logistics, and island hospitality, this tour blends adventure, culture, and relaxation into one unforgettable day.
