Discover Panama

 

The Heart of Global Connection

At the center of Panama’s identity lies the Panama Canal, one of the greatest engineering achievements in history. Spanning the Isthmus of Panama, this 80-kilometer waterway links the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, making it one of the world’s most vital trade routes. Recognized as one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World by the American Society of Civil Engineers, the Canal remains Panama’s economic and cultural lifeline, alongside tourism and international banking.

Nature, Islands, and Biodiversity

Beyond its world-famous canal, Panama is a paradise of biodiversity and natural beauty. The country boasts more than 1,800 islands, many untouched and surrounded by tropical forests and coral reefs. Among the most remarkable regions are:

  • Bocas del Toro Archipelago: Caribbean charm, surf beaches, colorful villages, and a vibrant Afro-Caribbean culture.
  • Guna Yala (San Blas Islands): An autonomous indigenous region where the Guna people preserve their ancestral traditions and protect their turquoise islands.
  • Las Perlas Archipelago: Located in the Gulf of Panama, this area is known for pristine beaches, whale watching, and exclusive island getaways.
  • Gulf of Chiriquí: On the Pacific coast, this marine sanctuary includes Coiba National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site rich in marine life.

From misty mountain highlands to untouched rainforests and coastal towns full of life, Panama offers endless opportunities for adventure, relaxation, and discovery.
